Join us for a special edition of Dead Poets Society, reflecting on the concept of "Memory".
Definitions :
memory
/ˈmem(ə)rē/
Memory refers to the mental faculty of encoding, storing, and retrieving information, experiences, and skills over time. It is the foundation of learning and personal identity, allowing past events to influence future actions.
This event occurs every second Saturday of the month at Blessed Be Tea & Apothocary
Suggested Donation: $5-$10 (Donations help keep our community events going, but they are not required to attend.)
Upon arrival, we will gather in a circle and take turns reading poetry in a round-robin style. Poetry may come from poets dead or alive, and our favorites are your own original works! Participation is encouraged but not mandatory—you’re welcome to pass if you don’t have a poem to share. However, it’s always more fun to join in!
Dead Poets Society is a community-based, open-mic style poetry reading event. At Blessed Be, we believe in the power of words and the importance of creating a sacred space for expression. While our group focuses on poetry, we also welcome writers, musicians, and all performance artists to share both mainstream and original works.
Important Note: This event is not specifically geared for children. We ask that parents use discretion when bringing kids, as poetry can sometimes touch on sensitive topics. The event is recommended for ages 15 and up.
What to Expect: Led by Allie Robinson-Ollila, this gathering forms organically, and all are welcome! Walk-ins and tag-a-long friends are always welcome.
Come and be part of our poetic community, where words come alive and everyone’s voice is heard!
