The DIY Imaginings Guide provides everything you need to know to host a vibrant, creative, equitable, and powerful community dialogue. From 2014-2016, the USDAC worked with three cohorts of volunteer Cultural Agents, each forming a learning community to support their local cultural organizing. Each Cultural Agent hosted a a public gathering using arts-based methods to envision their communities’ futures. Part performance, part facilitated dialogue these gatherings brought together groups of artists, organizers, and other community members to imagine what their neighborhoods might look. After supporting three rounds of gatherings they created this guide.
