Poetry & Potluck

Details

Poetry & Potluck is an opportunity to share a simple dish and a piece of text that you love. You can define “text” any way you’d like.

We all come together slurping on delicious food and listen to the diverse, wild, dumbfounding, beautiful, transcendent and probably dirty words that everyone has brought to share.

BYOB btw,

"I HAVE COME TO BELIEVE OVER AND OVER AGAIN THAT WHAT IS MOST IMPORTANT TO ME MUST BE SPOKEN, MADE VERBAL AND SHARED, EVEN AT THE RISK OF HAVING IT BRUISED OR MISUNDERSTOOD."
-Audre Lorde

WHAT TO EXPECT?

  • Community of odd-ish people who enjoy exchanging toothsome words.
  • Lots of amazing food.
  • An opportunity to hear some meaningful words.
  • An opportunity to share some meaningful words.
  • A blank mural space where anyone can explore mark making/painting.

"WE WASTE TIME LOOKING FOR THE PERFECT LOVER, INSTEAD OF CREATING THE PERFECT LOVE."
-TOM ROBBINS

We throw this event each month on the second Thursday!
