Self & Belonging
Join us at the White House for a sublime poetry immersive with Pádraig Ó Tuama.
Pádraig Ó Tuama, host of Poetry Unbound podcast and renowned author and poet, will facilitate a two day urban retreat exploring how we find poetry in our everyday lives. Over two-days, through exercises and conversations, we looked at the importance of cultivating awe in our lives, expand our curiosity, observation and deep listening skills. We ask, what role does language play in shaping our lives and our relationships with each other.
Please save the date in your calendars! Registration information shared in early December 2024
