KRUST: New School Year, New Emotions

KRUST: New School Year, New Emotions

Sunday, September 7th 2025
10:00 am
Free School Classroom
The beginning of a new school year can be anything from exciting to nerve-wracking — new teachers, new classrooms, and new classmates. Learning to express those big emotions and navigate those possibly uncomfortable situations is important for any youth as they begin the school year.

KRUST (Kids Roleplaying Uncomfortable Situations Together) is a group intentionally designed for children in third through fifth grade to learn how to better express their big feelings and navigate those tricky situations constructively and authentically without judgment. We use the interactive and participatory role playing technique of Augusto Boal’s Image Theatre to empower kids to express, embody, and explore those feelings. Then the kids will identify how they want to feel by the end of the week and what actions they can take to get there. ——— Adults are welcome to drop-off their registered kid(s) once they are checked in or stick around upstairs in Red Emma’s. Our group meeting is a snack-free space, so please plan accordingly. KRUST is a special collaboration between Matt Schultz of The Social Forest and Gab Sussman of Bmore Transform.
