"What would your dream house look like if money, rules, and physics didn't apply?" Join the Institute for Humanities for a creative workshop on where (and what) home really is. This is an interactive event that uses drawing, writing, and conversation to rethink what "home" really means beyond four walls and a mortgage. No background in art, architecture, or visual studies is required!Grounded in the humanities, this workshop treats home not merely as a physical structure, but as a personal, cultural, and political idea. Over the course of the event, participants will move through two creative exercises that blend thinking, self-reflection, and critical interpretation. Participants will be asked to imagine impossible homes, reinterpret familiar spaces, and consider what "home" might look like for different people and communities. Together, we will explore how identity, memory, history, and power shape where (and whether) we feel at home.
