The House with Many Windows

The House with Many Windows is an engaging, art-based Diversity and Inclusion (DEI) workshop designed to promote understanding and appreciation of workplace diversity. Through the creation of personal “windows,” participants express their unique perspectives, which are then assembled into a collective work that reflects the richness of their team’s diversity.

About this Workshop

The House with Many Windows offers a creative and transformative approach to exploring diversity and inclusion within the workplace. Using art as a medium for self-expression, participants are encouraged to reflect on their own identities, backgrounds, and experiences, which are represented through the creation of personal “windows.”

Each window tells a unique story, and when assembled together, they form a powerful collective piece that mirrors the diverse and inclusive fabric of the team. Through this interactive process, participants gain a deeper understanding of the value of diverse perspectives and leave with a shared commitment to fostering a more inclusive work environment.
