Parents Weekend Essential Photovoice Registration

How’s it really going?

Family Weekend is a terrific time to reconnect: over food, festivities, new friends, and all the pleasures of life at UVA.

It’s also an opportunity for meaningful family conversation – a time to ask the question, “How’s it really going?”

Amidst the excitement of college, studies find that 57% of university students suffer from stress, 47% from depression and 45% from loneliness. Meanwhile, back at home, many parents experience loss over their child’s move to college. There are many ups and downs!

Theological Horizons, a Christian faith-centered organization at UVA, offers a safe haven for both believers and seekers; we curate conversations that connect us.

Join us for a free lunch and a guided experience of Essential Photovoice @UVA: an art-based approach to meaningful understanding with amateur photography at its core.

Photovoice is a dialogue format that invites you into a facilitated small group conversation that is low-pressure and fun. In a casual setting, you’ll be invited to talk about whatever is on your mind: from your hopes, struggles, and friendships to your faith, community, and everyday life --- simply captured in mobile phone snapshots.

No special skills required. All you need is your mobile phone (or a print photo or two) and a spirit of curiosity.

Grab friends and family members and come for a delicious meal and some fun, relaxing time together!

Saturday, November 4th from 11:30AM-12:45PM in the Programs and Council office (PAC) on the first floor of Newcomb Hall
