Pro D: Intro to Visual Thinking, Graphic Facilitation & Graphic Notetaking

February 20 - February 21

$1500

In this unique, hands-on, two-day workshop, Adriana Contreras Correal and Michelle Buchholz provide an in-depth introduction to Visual Thinking, Graphic Facilitation, and Graphic Recording.

This workshop offers a rare and powerful opportunity to learn from two highly knowledgeable, skilled and talented consultants who bring their lived experiences and identities into each aspect of their practice and in spaces of learning. Michelle Buchholz, a proud Wet’suwet’en and Gitxsan woman, utilizes her visual practice as a form of witnessing, drawing on Wet’suwe’en governance practices and focusing on uplifting and amplifying Indigenous wisdom. Adriana Contreras Correal, a first-generation immigrant from Colombia, uses her artistry as a medium for intercultural communication, translating complex stories and collective wisdom into accessible visual narratives. Together, they provide an enriching, decolonizing approach to graphic recording.

Participants will explore how these methodologies can serve as decolonizing approaches to knowledge exchange, moving beyond Western-centric, text-heavy communication. Through individual and group exercises, they will learn the building blocks of visual language, fostering more inclusive and accessible ways to convey ideas and connect with others. Whether you’re aiming to enhance presentations, create more engaging reports, or bring creativity into your work, this workshop will equip you with the tools and approaches to get started.
