V-Day Annual Report 2017 - RISE FOR WOMEN WORKERS 1 | Page 33

CLIMBING POETREE Climbing PoeTree uses performance and participatory art to inspire diverse communities to dissolve apathy, resist injustice, and activate the transformation they wish to cultivate within themselves and their communities. The Rising Fund Grant helped to finalize video editing, coloring, scoring, and special effects for a 2-hour feature length film central to Climbing PoeTree’s youth curriculum which will be made available on an online portal where lesson plans and media will be hosted.
