ScreenWeavers Digital Tapestries - Education
Media Literacy is more important today than ever before. Screenweavers pioneered some of the first media literacy workshops (playshops) over 25 years ago. It is our belief than given the tools to communicate youth and adults alike are an overwhelming source of creativity.
The video production process itself is an invaluable means for self-exploration.
It is a therapy for those that are working through difficult times. It is an art form. It is a tool for expressing and documenting ideas and events.
