New Community Arts Program

Greetings in the name of Community Arts:

For the next six weeks, we will begin our new community arts program beginning with Poetry/Spoken Word.  You are invited to share the attached flyer with relatives, friends, neighbors, church members, your organizational participants and others that is interested in expressing themselves through poetry.  You will also have the opportunity to express yourself through recitals, reading or the creation of your own poetry.  We will have poetry books and poems here, but feel free to bring your personal information.  The objectives are to have fun, creativity, self-expression, social integration.

Volunteers, seasoned poets and fans of art are welcome to attend and help others when you can.  Our goal is to inspire everyone in attendance.  LUCE is reaching out to all community residents available to participate during the day.  The poetry piece begins this Thursday, October 28 at 10:00 p.m. and will continue for six (6) weeks, ending December 16th.  Share the message, bring a friend.  With enough participants, we are hopeful to name the group and do some Holiday performances.

I personally hope to see you there as I attempt to read some favorite pieces.
