Water Protector’s Training Camp

Water Protector’s Training Camp (WPTC) is a new program from Title Track that provides an opportunity for young people to connect with professional artists and activists to create music, creative writing, art, and video while exploring their commitment to being a Water Protector.

The first cohort of WPTC occurred at Earthwork Harvest Gathering 2022. We recently completed our Water Protector’s Training Camp (WPTC) with 3rd-5th graders from Rapid City Elementary, in partnership with Seeds. The students spent time with the river, engaged in creative practice, and learned about the 4 ways to be a water protector through the lens of the butterfly model for transformative justice (resist, reform, build, heal).

We’re excited to be offering more sessions of WPTC in Summer and Fall 2024. Stay tuned for details to be announced in the weeks to come and sign up on the WPTC interest form if you’d like to host a WPTC or find out when we’re coming to your area!

We are looking forward to more partnerships with schools and organizations in upper and lower Michigan in late 2024 into 2025.  Stay tuned to this page for more details, or send a message to programs {at} titletrackmichigan.org to inquire about how you can bring this programming to your area!!
