Event Type: Adult Program Age Group(s): Adult Date: 6/3/2019 Start Time: 6:00 PM End Time: 7:30 PM Description: We live in times of great change.
Library: Downtown Bend Public LibraryHow can we move forward with greater understanding of our differences, and our sameness? We believe timely, open ended questions create a space for us to do just that. Carol Delmonico and Casey Davis have authored and designed an interactive journal “Stoke Your Woke” that supports us to share perspectives, listen, reflect, and learn from one another. During these 1.5 hour events you will explore questions through thought provoking prompts, quotes, and images. You will connect with others through writing, listening, and sharing. The space created will allow for everyone's diverse perspectives to be heard with hospitality and equity. We'll delve into questions like: How could you hold your own truth and listen openly to someone who has a different truth? How do you hold both “me and mine” and “we and ours” when a personal decision affects the wellbeing of others? What is needed for our most vulnerable populations? Here’s what past participants have said: "This is the kind of thing our society desperately needs." - Tara Breitenbucher "I felt a sense of hope and community, and learned some new things about myself in a very gentle way" - Vicki Avila "Appreciation for this process. What a huge difference it makes to hear each other. It Stokes Our Woke!" - Sarah Mason This is an ongoing series, meeting once a month on Monday evenings. You are welcome to come to more than one event but it’s not required.
