SOLIDARITY & STANZAS is a transformative writing experience that invites individuals of all skill levels to immerse themselves in a two-hour workshop focused on healing, self-expression, and empowerment. This event, taking place at the Sims Library Of Poetry in Los Angeles on October 21st, aims to honor the stories within us, transcending trauma, predefined narratives, and mere survival. As we observe Domestic Violence Awareness Month, SOLIDARITY AND STANZAS delves into the themes explored in Dr. V's powerful work, WOMXN, and Wynter Eddins' thought-provoking book, AFTERGLOW.
Facilitated by the renowned spoken word poet, mental health therapist, educator, and award-winning author, Ravina, this workshop guides participants through a series of inspiring and reflective writing prompts. The goal is to discover and honor their authentic voices, embracing unfiltered truth and connecting through the shared experiences of survivorship. Attendees will leave this immersive creative gathering with a renewed or entirely new piece of writing, inspired by the essence of their inner selves.
The event also features an open mic session, providing a platform for individuals to share their creations and engage in a supportive community of like-minded individuals. Alongside Dr. V and The Coldest Wynter, Ravina will create an atmosphere of solidarity, friendship, and love. Additionally, the admission ticket includes refreshments, a journal, and the opportunity to form new connections. Whether you are a seasoned writer or just embarking on your creative journey, SOLIDARITY & STANZAS promises to be an enriching experience that will leave you feeling uplifted and empowered. Join us at this writing as healing workshop and mic and embark on a transformative journey within the realm of poetry and prose.
