A Place in the Family of Things: poetry of longing and belonging
Friday, March 19 at 7:30 pm

Finding peace in these trubulent times isn't always easy but when all else fails there is always poetry, whether voiced in literature, music or visual art.  In conjunction with the Daphne Odjig exhibition, Anne Campbell, Monsignor Donald Bolen and Kalburgi Srinivas present poetry that speaks to the heart of the mysteries of human experience: Why are we here? What am I to do?  Participants in this program are invited to bring their own special poems for reading and a facilitated follow up discussion on Sunday March 28, 2 pm to 4 pm.
