Harm Reduction Art Workshop at SFAA
Society for Applied Anthropology Conference Portland, OR
In spring 2025, we took our workshops on the road to Portland, Oregon, to the annual meetings of the Society for Applied Anthropology!
We were pleased to host an amazing group of anthropologists who created a zine about harm reduction that contains art and educational resources.
We need new ways to resist the War on Drugs that center social justice and compassionately address drug use in our communities. In this hands-on workshop, an anthropologist and a community artist will offer a historical grounding in harm reduction as a grassroots movement and practical set of strategies to address drug-related harms. Based on our shared learning about the subversive role of art in harm reduction education and community organizing, we will engage in our own art-making as a methodology to revitalize the contributions of creativity and collaboration in improving community health. No artistic training is required!
