Windows to More than Ourselves: Poetry and the Imagaination

 


IPTN – 3RD SESSION OF WELLNESS THROUGH THE SEASONS 2021

Windows to More than Ourselves: Poetry and the Imagination 



Saturday 12th June 2pm – 4.00pm (Irish time, GMT+1) on Zoom

In the words of the writer CS Lewis, “We seek an enlargement of our being. We want to be more than ourselves … We want to see with other eyes, to imagine with other imaginations, to feel with other hearts, as well with our own ... We demand windows.”
Windows, both literal and virtual, have played an important role in COVID times, relating to separation, connection and possibility. In this workshop, we will explore the meanings of the word windows through images, quotes and poetry, and take part in some writing activities. We will also reflect on poetry as a portal to the imagination and self-expression.

Held on Zoom and facilitated by Shelley Tracey PTP

€15 or €10 for IPTN Members
