Interested in cultivating your inner poet? Join us at Poems for Our Time where we’ll slow down, explore contemporary poetry, and connect with our creativity. Hosted by writer, workshop facilitator, and meditation teacher, Grace Bialecki.

Poetry is a place of solace, a place of mystery, a place where we can delve deeper into live’s questions and return with unexpected answers. In our scattered world, reading poetry together is a way of connecting with our shared humanity. It’s a way of slowing the pace of our lives, so we can pay attention to new words and ideas.

How can we convey joy with words on the page? Some poems take us to unexpected places, and we’ll look at the way “At Pegasus” by Terrance Hayes brings a nightclub to life.
