EMOTION IN MOTION

SAT, MAR 7, 1 PM
MARIA MUELLER

When was the last time you gave your emotional intelligence the attention it deserves? Yes—it’s a skill, and like any skill, it can be nurtured and strengthened. In this workshop, we’ll explore the often-overlooked power of naming and understanding our emotions. Too often, we rely on the same handful of words to describe what we feel—but our inner world is far more nuanced than that. Through guided visualizations of imaginary scenarios (don’t worry, we’re not going to dig through your past or any other harmful practices!), light improvisation, and movement-based exercises, you’ll safely explore a broader emotional range in a supportive, structured space. By the end, you’ll walk away with deeper insight into your emotional patterns and a richer vocabulary to express yourself.

POEMS THAT TEND TO THE PAST

FRI, APR 24, 6 PM
PHILIPE ABIYOUNESS

How might poetry allow us a means by which to—in the words of Lucille Clifton—tend to the past? Together, we will consider poetry as an act of documentation, using found materials (for example: photographs, court documents, letters) to write poems that engage with the stories, people, and places that root usWhat need not be forgotten? How do we engage our personal histories with care, thought, and rigor? We will consider these questions and others as we read, write, and talk together.
