Join a creative workshop on Friday, August 8, 2025, from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM at Impact Hub Houston in The Ion District. This THINK VISUAL session, led by Amélie Uriu, teaches people how to use drawing, design, and visual storytelling to help their communities. The workshop shows how visual tools can help people from all backgrounds understand complex problems and work together to create solutions.
Participants will learn hands-on techniques for visual dialogue, co-design, storytelling, and systems mapping. This monthly meetup brings together visual thinkers, civic designers, changemakers, creatives, and community organizers. The event focuses on making civic learning more welcoming and accessible, especially for people who learn better through visuals and relationships.
The workshop emphasizes human-centered design principles that honor community voices and help advance shared goals. From policy work to improving neighborhoods, visual tools help people make sense of complicated issues and build solutions together. The event is organized by SHAPESHIFTERS and Alphachimp and takes place at Houston's innovation hub.
