Upcoming Events

Let’s Hike and Write Together!

Music and Writing Night

Tuesday, Sept. 30 | 6:30-8 p.m. MST

This is a 1.5 hour-long online gathering that combines music, poetry, writing, and friends. This is similar to a book club, but rather than assigning a book, a musical album is the focus.

Participants are encouraged to listen to the album ahead of the gathering, review the lyrics, and come prepared to discuss the artist’s work. Then, we free write for about 30 minutes based on writing prompts associated with the album. At the end of the gathering, we will have time for volunteers to share their work and receive encouraging feedback.

Listen: Listen to ‘The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill’ wherever you stream music. The entire album is available for free on YouTube.
