The Dressing Room Project: WORKSHOPS WITH MIMI KATES

The Dressing Room Project Workshop
presented by singer/songwriter and educator Mimi Kates

The Dressing Room Project Workshop is an interactive presentation which helps teenage girls learn to focus on their positive qualities, expand their definition of "beautiful", value uniqueness in themselves and others and become more critical thinkers regarding media.

Group activities, as well as live music performed by Mimi Kates, act as the catalyst to discussion of relevant issues. The final portion of the workshop provides the opportunity for girls to take action and join our girl-powered rebellion, creating their own original Dressing Room Project card designs.

A musical performance by Mimi is a great complement to a workshop presentation.

"Mimi helped me to find my own voice. Her dedication to young people
made me realize that it is possible to make a difference."

"The girls who participated in The Dressing Room Project Workshop came away happy and positive."
     ~ Linda Gravatt, Guidance Counselor, Hana High School - Hana, HI

"The Dressing Room Project Workshop was able to capture the girls' feelings about what is good
in themselves while helping them understand how media images work to make them feel inferior.
The girls enjoyed it and learned a lot."
     ~ Rabbi Stacy Eskovitz Rigler, Keneseth Israel - Elkins Park, PA
