Join Inlandia Institute’s Blacklandia Events Series in partnership with Riverside Public Library on Thursday, February 3, from 7:00-8:00 PM for a very special First Thursdays Arts Walk event, “The Language of Healing, the Poetry of Hope.”

Moderated by local poet and educator Romaine Washington, a panel of writers – including James Coats, Lydia Theon Ware i, and George Hammons – will discuss their artistic journeys during this time of change, confusion, and deep challenge. Looking for inspiration? Seeking new ideas for the New Year? Then join us for an evening of fresh perspectives and connection as we consider where we are, as individuals and as a society – and what comes next. All are welcome.

The conversation will be interlaced with readings by the authors.

This online event is free and open to the public, but registration is required: https://tinyurl.com/Healing-Hope.
