Cursing Troubles and Dreaming Futures.

Writers Room - 229 N. 34th St, 3rd Floor

Wednesday, March 4th, 2026 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Confront it, Let it out, Beat it!

Visualizing, intellectualizing, defining, naming, speaking, and noticing. Techniques we use, to varying degrees, as lenses to interact with the world every day. In this community art-making and writing workshop, we will create visual art or write poetry to describe a quality, topic, or problem we have been frustrated with or despise. 

In response to these subjects, we will write confrontations and testimonies how they make us feel. We will also write affirmations towards ourselves as reminders of our own skills and potential to overcome these villainous subjects. Come for a chance to beat the daylights out of these troubles as well—yes, physically beat! This is an opportunity to embolden oneself to express discontent, as a tool to understand problems, to speak with what may often be tucked away and tolerated. 

Light snacks will be provided.
