LEARN MORE

Poetry is not only dream and vision; it is the skeleton architecture of our lives. It lays the foundations for a future of change, a bridge across our fears of what has never been before.

—Audre Lorde

Upcoming Workshops

“Poetry can speak the truth in a language people can hear, it can heal wounds, bring us empathy and compassion and insight into how another feels, it can help us see the world in new ways.”

— Meg Weston & Kathrin Seitz
