🗓️When: April 26, 2025

⏰Time: 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM

At this event, we’re doing more than reading poems. We’re:
🫶🏾 Highlighting the deep connection between poetry and mental health
🌱 Encouraging self-discovery, healing, and unapologetic celebration of self
🗣️ Creating a safe, welcoming space for open conversations and listen to poetry about emotions, identity, and well-being
💛 Inspiring guests to “Unfold Their Heart”—to speak their truth, write freely, and connect authentically

As we celebrate National Poetry Month, this event also honors the love and legacy of our beloved co-founder and poet, Denzel Norris. His writing remains a lifeline for those navigating the complexities of life, mental health, and self-discovery.We honor his memory, which continues to inspire healing, hope, and resilience in others.

Sleep in perfect peace, Denzel (@denzelnorrispoetry)🌹🪽♥️😘
