How Asian Girls Ignite Students Became Storytellers During Our 2025 Summer Program
Ever wonder what an Asian Girls Ignite workshop really looks like? Thanks to KUVO Jazz Public Radio, you can see it for yourself!
Last month during Day 3 of RepresentAsian Matters (our summer program), we turned the spotlight on storytelling. We welcomed two powerhouse storytellers:
Tran Nguyen-Wills (she/her), Deputy Outreach Director for Office of Denver Mayor Mike Johnston
Abi Clark (she/her), Senior Community Producer & On-Air Host at KUVO Jazz Public Radio
They led a workshop on the art of interviewing and the magic of deep listening. With the high school camp guides by their side, our middle school students:
Wrote thoughtful interview questions
Earned their official AGI Press Passes
Interviewed Denver Botanic Gardens staff about food, art, and community care
Turned those conversations into reflection zines and posters
The best part… you can see the joy in action. The curiosity, confidence, and laughter right here:
