Events for Poetry and Spoken Word

Gearn - Storytelling

Find the unexpected blessings found in the darkest of clouds. Listen closely as storytellers spin their yarns of resilience, hope, and redemption, revealing how even the gloomiest of situations can unveil gleaming silver linings. Our theme for the evening is “Silver Linings”. From tales of overcoming adversity to moments of serendipitous joy, each narrative carries the promise of finding beauty in life's most challenging chapters. So, settle in and let the magic of storytelling transport you to a world where every cloud has a silver lining waiting to be discovered.

Writing Workshop Series: Release Your Inner Poet

A Workshop for Exploring (and Writing) Poetry Join us for an evening of inspiration and guidance to help you discover the poetry that is hiding inside you. Bring a notebook, journal, or any paper you wish to use (doesn’t matter what – fancy leather-bound with hand-pressed pages or scrap paper from your recycling bin) and a pen, pencil, marker, crayon, random art supplies – whatever will make the marks you want on your journey as a poet. (If you need something to write on or want a clean start, we have a great journal section to find your next vessel.) Also, feel free to come a few minutes early to grab an iced tea, cookie, or other treat from Oasis to bring into the session. There is no cost to joining – just an hour and a half out of your evening and the risk of inciting a passion for poetry! https://www.goldenbraidslc.com/events/writing-workshop-series-release-your-inner-poet-july-2024
