Emotions are like water, they can be a stream or a tsunami. This free verse poetry workshop will examine what it means to flow around obstacles. How do we truly examine and express our emotions and their root causes in a way that brings balance to our mental health? How do we do this through a poetry-writing and editing process that is healing? Participants should be prepared to contemplate, experiment, question, write fresh autobiographical work, give and receive feedback, co-create safe space and predict the future of humankind.

Workshop leader Tawhida Tanya Evanson is an Antiguan-Québécoise poet, author and artist.

Workshop is free; space is limited, registration required. For more information and registration info:
