Join artist Bianca Beneduzi for a creative and family-friendly workshop that blends dance improvisation and intuitive drawing to explore the themes of memory, celebration and connection.

Drawing inspiration from traditions like the Mexican Day of the Dead and the symbolic journey of Monarch butterflies, participants are invited to weave personal and shared memories into movement and art.

Through playful drawing with paper and crayons, and group collaboration, we’ll dance through feelings of lightness and darkness, experiment with shapes and textures, and create together in a spirit of joy and creativity.

No experience is needed, just a willingness to take part.

This event by Itzatna Arts forms part of the A Matter of Life and Death Festival by Brum YODO 2nd - 16th May 2026
