This event is guided by community artist Toni Short, whose passion for creating spaces of authentic connection and profound self-discovery shines through in her mission: In ART WE HEAL.

The evening will begin with a grounding meditation, followed by guided prompts for journaling and poem creation. The space then opens into a community open mic, where you can share your new creations (poetry or other forms of spoken expression), or simply listen and be inspired.

The Benefits: Deepen your connection with your personal identity and nature, explore universal connections to family, heritage, earth, and the cosmos, celebrate human expression, and witness others with community.

Come share your voice, celebrate others', and witness the magic of pure expression come alive.
