On Board(hers) Goes to the Border

On Board(hers) Goes to the Border

After a year working with Ohio-based female immigrants, Dr. Lucille Toth and MFA student Yildiz Güventürk (Dance) travelled to the US/Mexico border in October as part of their On Board(hers) project. In Nogales, Mexico, they offered a movement therapy workshop to migrant women and their children who are sheltered by the Kino Border Initiative. Thanks to an OSU-Newark Outreach grant, they will return to Nogales three times over the coming year to facilitate an opportunity for expression, mindful reflection, and shared stories within the instability of life as an asylum-seeker navigating the complex situation of the US-Mexico border.
