Blindspot Collective: Seeking persons experiencing homelessness

I would like to introduce you to Blake McCarty, Executive Artistic Director for WWW.BLINDSPOTCOLLECTIVE.ORG, whom is also a County of San Diego Live Well Partner.

Blindspot Collective recently received a grant to create a project amplifying the voices of people experiencing homelessness or unhoused folks.

They are hoping to provide a series of arts-based workshops (free of charge) at local shelters or organizations that serve people who are unhoused. For those who are willing to participate, we will also conduct small story circles or interviews. All of that research will be used to develop a new play with music that encourages empathy and advocacy.

He is seeking to connect with service organizations, shelters, or other entities doing this type of work to hold these workshops and small story circle for a new play. The project is being led by an artist who was formerly homeless and we received a grant from local government to develop this project.

If you can assist in any way, here is his information below.
