Consistently, not heroically? . . . Hope is the discipline of showing up when nobody claps. Hope is the choice to keep your tenderness intact in a world that profits off your hardening. Hope is the small, repeated yes you make to your own life." — Mahogany L.

I don't think it's a privilege or an indulgence, it's not even a quest. I think it's almost like knowledge, which is to say, it's what we were born for. — Toni Morrison https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/5e92b2b0-1c5b-11f1-8026-d96a43b74dca-rimg-w592-h740-dc5d7f8d-gmir.jpg Agenda?: 01:00 PMDoors OpenHost: Camille Asia?: 01:30 PMGrounding & AcknowledgmentsFeatured Artists PerformOpen MicClosing - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/easthampton/not-a-noplace-hope-is-a-discipline/100001983220051561 - **Event Categories**: Art, Nonprofit, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 28.52, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Easthampton - **state**: MA - **country**: United States - **location**: 116 Pleasant St suite 244 - **lat**: 42.2724604 - **long**: -72.6638292 - **full address**: 116 Pleasant St suite 244, 116 Pleasant Street, Easthampton, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Not A Noplace: Hope Is A Discipline - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/35e0ab44735ec187d682176d042905a7ac036a834895e0d31c0cdef3094057fe-rimg-w1080-h1350-dc638893-gmir.jpg?v=1773131465 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Not A Noplace: Hope Is A Discipline being held? - **A:** Not A Noplace: Hope Is A Discipline takes place on Sat, 21 Mar, 2026 at 01:00 pm to Sat, 21 Mar, 2026 at 04:00 pm at 116 Pleasant St suite 244, 116 Pleasant Street, Easthampton, United States. - **Q**: How much do tickets cost for Not A Noplace: Hope Is A Discipline? - **A:** Tickets for Not A Noplace: Hope Is A Discipline are priced at USD 29 per person.
