Poetry Coffeehouse Online: 10/29/20

Pendle Hill has moved our “Beloved Community” Poetry Coffeehouses online! While the venue has changed from our Wallingford, PA retreat center to Zoom due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we continue to hold on to the supportive, nurturing, and sustaining energy intended for our gatherings. Listen to a different Featured Poet perform each month. Then, write in response to the Feature’s themes/words and share with other attendees of the program. This 1-hour poetry experience extends our community to a wider world and offers all writers a safe net for linguistic exploration and spiritual discovery.
