The Center for Arts in Medicine Presents: The Diversity Project

The Diversity Project will explore issues of diversity with a focus on race and class through storytelling and theater. The event will provide a safe environment in which participants can share their experiences at UF. Stories may be incorporated into a live theatrical/multimedia performance, which will become a platform for discussion and the posing of possible solutions.

The event is open to all students, faculty and staff. All are encouraged to participate in a facilitated story circle, and to share stories about:

  • Racial diversity
  • Race relations
  • Discrimination
