From Vietnam Festival of Creativity & Design:
“Befriend emotions” (Làm bạn với cảm xúc) is a workshop co-organized by 1648kilomet and VFCD. The program aims to build a safe space for everyone to be heard, understood, and accepted, so the number of applicants is limited. However, if you are looking for an opportunity to facilitate acceptance of all emotions, kindly register now!
In this workshop, you will experience and guide some skills to befriend your emotions through an art experience. In addition, the facilitator will introduce you to identifying and naming emotions based on Biết Thương – a picture dictionary for emotions. Through learning by experience, 1648kilomet hopes you somewhat understand yourself better and, at the same time, consciously increase your happiness capacity by making friends with your emotions.
“Befriend emotions” is an extra-curricular program within the framework of the project “From ‘I’ to Others” (“Nghệ thuật cho mọi người”) by 1648kilomet.
* Biết Thương (lit. Knowing how to love and care) has just completed its first edition and is presented in the program “Befriend emotions” as an open and experimental learning tool. Community input in this phase will help 1648kilomet perfect this picture dictionary for emotions. We express our sincere gratitude for these contributions to the creative journey of Knowing Love.
