Discover poetry that moves the soul, beyond theology, from a primal language that brings us together. We will speak it, carry its words onto music, interact with it, bring our voices to it, find ways to express its beauty and truth, and take it home with you. Try writing lines yourself between sessions.
We greatly appreciate Jim donating his time, expertise, and perspective for this class. Your registration fee and/or donation will go directly to Womanspace to support our programming.
