Reimagining Your Story Through Poetry w/ Andrea Gibson

Description

Andrea Gibson (they/them/their) is one of the most stirring and influential spoken word artists of our time. Best known for their live performances, in which they regularly sell out large capacity rock clubs and concert halls, Gibson has changed the landscape of what it means to attend a "poetry show" altogether. Gibson's poems center around LGBTQ issues, gender, feminism, and mental health, as well as gun reform and the dismantling of oppressive social systems. Their live shows, in which they are often accompanied by musicians, have become loving and supportive ecosystems for audiences to feel seen, heard, and held through Gibson's art.

Andrea will lead a workshop on "Reimagining Your Story through Poetry." This session will explore: - The importance of telling our story. - How poetry can help us step into ourselves more authentically. - How we can begin to use the art of poetry to help design a more fulfilling and purposeful life. - Writing prompts, tools and techniques to begin crafting our narrative.
