Workshop Series 2023 Community Care Practices

How is Bricks & Glitter ensuring health and safety during our events?

PPE: Masks and sanitizer will be available and distributed. Masking is suggested.

On-site care team: Every event will have a care team member present should anything arise, physically or virtually. This includes active listening, de-escalation, and communicating needs.

We welcome feedback! Don’t hesitate to reach out!

ASL Support

This year Bricks & Glitter will be collaborating with Phoenix The Fire services to offer ASL all of the Workshop Series 2023 events.

Food Access

All events will have snacks and/or catering. All snacks will be nut-free. There will be options for gluten-free and vegan/vegetarian. Food ingredients will be available at all events.

Transportation

Bricks & Glitter will offer transit fare upon request to support access to festival activities.

Scent Free Policy

We ask guests attending any in-person events to refrain from using any scented products. We will have unscented soap available for use, and ask that if you are wearing a strong scent, to use this soap to rinse where you can.
