<divclass="item"><b>2.</b> A Blindfold Walk With Someone/Split
Choose a person to do this activity with – possibly someone with no artistic background and offer to pay money for their commitment(from the budget). They can reject the payment if they got something from the experience. CRAFT a blindfold, which you can then reuse, each together. Ask them to accompany you for a30 minutes silent, blindfold walk and change around. While you walk, both ask yourself: What are you noticing? What is standing out to you? Why are we doing this? After the walk, take min 30 minutes to reflect on your experiences and offer to pay your companion... Questions prompt for this part will be provided. [aleepb]</div>
<divclass="item"><b>3.</b> A Collection of 26 Words Where ‘C’ Isn’t Necessarily for ‘COVID’ or ‘CORONAVIRUS’: Many of us are just beginning to make sense of the last year. Language can help. Choose one word starting with each letter of the Latin alphabet to talk about the lived experience of the pandemic. Your collection could be a hand-drawn ABC book, a set of cards/images, an audio recording (song, recitation, spoken word), a 3D model, sky writing, a walking route, etc. Non-English versions are most welcome. Subversive alphabets too. [gleeph]</div>
<divclass="item"><b>4.</b> A collective online audio call of sharing admin experiences of this year. How many calculations radmin participants do per day.
