About this Event

Es fácil perder la esperanza ante el reto del cambio climático. Sin embargo gestos personales como cuidar de una huerta, de un jardín, o pasearse entre los árboles pueden ofrecernos consuelo, alentar nuestra esperanza y motivarnos a tomar alguna acción en lugar de caer en la apatía.


Únase a un evento que es parte discusión, parte lectura de poesía, y parte taller de escritura con Claudia Castro Luna, ex Poeta Laureada del Estado de Washington. “Ilusiones Verdes” explora la importancia de las plantas y árboles en nuestras vidas. La charla reta la percepción que los árboles son formas pasivas y los presenta como pioneros ambientales quienes nos pueden eseñar mucho sobre la belleza, la fé, las interconexiones y nuestro propio sentido de ser.


Claudia Castro Luna es la ex Poeta Laureada del Estado de Washington (2018-2021) y la primera persona en ser elegida como Poeta Cívica de Seattle (2015-2018). Ella es la autora de cuatro collecciones de poesía incluyendo dos, Cipota Under the Moon y Killing Marías, que fueron finalistas del concurso Washington State Book Award. Claudia también escribe prosa narrativa y enseña poesía y escritura. Ella vive en Tacoma.


Este programa se realiza en conjunto con Whatcom READS y esta patrocinado por Humanities Washington Speakers Bureau.


Esta charla estará disponible en espagnol en Village Books el 28 de febrero de 2 a 3:30 de la tarde.
