About the Workshop
Who you are has never been in the whole history of the world, and your generation is unlike any other that has come before.
 
In this workshop, queer youth are handed the mic to create a podcast episode to be included in the next season of The Future Perfect Project’s (FPP) new podcast, I’m Feeling Queer Today (IFQT). Through a series of virtual group discussions, team building exercises, and writing prompts, participants will collaborate to create an episode about their lived experience being LGBTQIA+ on Cape Cod. The work will be recorded in-person at the Fine Arts Work Center during a 5-day workshop July 7th-12thNo previous experience is required, just an open heart.
