Hello reader!

Read on for what's happening at the library.

Poetry, the Natural World, the Climate Crisis, and Connection: A Reading and Workshop with Nadia Colburn, PhD.

Brookline Village

WEDNESDAY, February 28 at 7 PM

In this interactive reading and workshop, poet, teacher, and activist Nadia Colburn will read from her poetry book I Say the Sky and lead participants in meditations, prompts, and discussion around our own inner and outer weathers. How do we stay grounded in this time of crisis? How do we cultivate and nourish a vision of connection and belonging? And how can we find our own voice amidst both the clamoring noise of our public, busy world, and the many forces of silence around us?

This event is generously sponsored by the Library Trustees.
