The Heroes' Journey
Taught by Arrowyn Ambrose and Laura Veeder
Ages 8 – 12
Two Saturdays: August 23 and August 30, 2008
1:00 pm – 3:00 pm
This workshop takes place at 826LA East
1714 W. Sunset Blvd., Echo Park, CA 90026

In this workshop, which explores the work of Joseph Campbell and Carl Jung, students will explore ancient myths and archetypes, and learn about their continuing presence and importance in the modern world. With new knowledge of the hero myth, each student will look inward and discover a personal Heroes' Journey—a call to adventure, a road of trials, and a return—then write about and illustrate that journey.

Arrowyn Ambrose is currently the Curriculum and Training Director at the Young Storytellers Foundation, and Laura Veeder is the Artistic Director of the Young Heroes Project.
