SUMMARY:Mississippi Musings November Workshop: Community & The River
DESCRIPTION:Discover how community power has shaped the Mississippi River’s past…and how it can shape its future. \nIn this session\, Colleen O’Connor Toberman\, Director of Land Use & Planning at Friends of the Mississippi River\, will trace inspiring stories of people who have helped heal the river through collective action. She’ll reveal how community organizing becomes a force for real environmental change\, breaking down the practical “levers” of power that individuals and groups can pull to advance their goals. \nAttendees will gain a systems-level view of activism—what Colleen calls the “science of community”—offering a clear\, compelling framework for understanding how movements grow\, how decisions are influenced\, and how you can plug in to make a meaningful difference. \nDrawing on her leadership as an artist\, organizer\, and volunteer\, Shanai Matteson will connect the importance of climate justice\, community storytelling\, and fostering meaningful connections to strong and resilient communities. \nArtist Kimberly Boustead will lead an art-making activity centered around the idea of what a healthy river looks like to you. \nThis event includes a light refreshments and an opportunity to explore the Stormwater Park + Learning Center including A Gathering of Waters\, a multi-sensory exhibit by artist Shoshana Fink. \nThis event is free\, but registration is required.
