Overview

Many voices, one poem


Many voices, one poem

In silence, or out loud

But, together

________________________🐌

come celebrate with me

what I have shaped into a kind of life

this terrible miracle I mourn

and find joy in everyday


Come join us for a great time that will be filled with soul, joy and fun! Please come curious and ready to find some enjoyment!


Queer BIPOC women + femmes are invited to speak and be heard through the words of Lucille Clifton. Everyone else? You're here to witness and hold space.


We'll sit. We'll share. We'll celebrate.


This event is inspired by silent worship, healing circles, and open mic nights.


Space is limited so please RSVP only if you know you can make it. 


Supported by a grant from the Mayor's Office of Arts and Culture, City of Boston.

 

If you like poetry or feeling awed. Or you’re an introvert who hates to be alone. If you’re gay or “nonwhite and colored”. Or if you’re exhausted from mourning more genocides than you have fingers. If you’re enby or have 3 or more cats. If you rarely look in the mirror. If you’re a parent. If you love someone and fear for their life. If you’re glad, and surprised, to be alive… this gathering is for you.

 

Bring your whole self, with whatever you’re carrying, and a friend or ally. All are welcome, here.
