AGASAN

Using sound, movement and visual art, AGASAN is a collective led by Rachel Lastimosa and healing practitioners offering accessible artistic pathways of destigmatized mental health through culturally responsive and collectivized experiences. AGASAN in the Ilokano dialect means “to heal or give medicine”; it is a multi-phase project that includes workshops and an interactive offering to address ancestral trauma. Open to anyone, AGASAN is for those willing to explore creative pathways of self care: artists, workers, youth, elders, BIPOC, LGBTQA, service providers and especially communities within the diaspora.
