Natasha Doyon is an artist and art educator who is passionate about enabling youth to use art to transform discriminatory speech into new narratives; to empower themselves and develop agency as critical users of social media. Doyon has over 20 year’s experience teaching art and developing pedagogical programming that is culturally and context specific for populations to draw from personal experiences and link them to wider social issues that impact their daily lives.

Creative Approach and Experiences Offered

The class always begins with getting to know the students through some warm-up exercises. What follows is a series of quick interactive exercises of self-portraits; followed by some social media searches that I choose, and the class shares as well.

Decided upon with the teacher – I develop either a group or solo activity whereby the students take 3-5 elements that they noticed and transform them through a comic, poster, or zine.

All the aspects of the workshop are adpated to age, available materials, and student accessibility.
