Everyone wants to be a hero, but not everyone knows how.

 

Be part of My Hero, a workshop that helps you figure it out. Here you can find your special power, recruit your sidekick, pose for your own newspaper article, design your costume and pledge an allegiance to become part of an ever growing community of real-life-super-heroes!

 

The participants enter the space and create a superhero based on their qualities. There are several stations, which they can choose whatever order to access them in. The stations are marked, and there will be two supervisors to help participants. Here, they can create their own name, costume, have their photo taken like they were in a newspaper and find out their 'powers'. This installation takes the everyday normal qualities that people have and turns them into a superhero.

 

This workshop is accessible to all ages in the following grouped categories; 6-10 year olds, 11-13 year olds, 14-16 year olds and adults ages 17 and above.

 

Dependable on the environment, the workshop can run for varied time slots. Festival: Six hours at a time with people coming in and out as they please. School: For groups of 20, it can run at 2 hour slots.
