Fern Fest 2024 Workshop Facilitator Application
Fern Fest is excited to offer a variety of workshop experiences. There are a limited number of workshop times in the official festival schedule so selections will be based on criteria supporting a diverse set of offerings for attendees. If your workshop is not selected this year, we encourage unofficial workshops, meetups and discussions hosted by attendees and communicated via a centralized message board in the Community Tent. 

At this time, we are unable to offer compensation for workshops and facilitators must still purchase a full price ticket. Official workshops will be held in one of three locations.  Uncovered workshops can be moved in the event of rain. 

Fern Fest is a music festival specifically curated to drive connection, foster community and belonging for women, non-binary and trans and folks and those that live on the spectrum of the feminine spirit. It is really important that crew members can actively support Fern Fest’s values and community guidelines while facilitating workshops and can support a positive, inclusive and equitable experience for all participants. 

For those of us with white, cis and other identity privilege...No matter where you are in your individual journey of anti-oppression (racism and white supremacy, transphobia, ableism, etc.) everyone has a role to play in our collective anti-oppression work and is responsible for their actions. So many of us feel drawn to festival culture because of the safety and healing it can bring. It is important to also acknowledge that not everyone in our community is afforded the same privilege. If you are given the gift of feedback that something you said or did has impacted someone negatively, aim to center the experience of the person harmed, especially when they are BIPOC, trans, and/or other identity or ability status that is subject to oppression. Utilize the CPR Reparative Model*—Calm Yourself, Practice Humility and Repair. https://www.accessmatters.org/cpr-the-racial-microaggressions-reparative-response-model/
