Family First: The Heart of Us

In this poetry workshop, participants work individually or with their families to create a poem that establishes their shared values.
About this Event

The Heart of Us is a guided poetry experience where individuals and families explore and express the values that define who they are—together. Through creative writing prompts, gentle discussion, and collaborative exercises, participants of all ages will reflect on what matters most: love, courage, kindness, fun, honesty, and more.

This workshop is rooted in affirmation, connection, and creativity. Each family will co-write a signature “Family Values Poem” that celebrates their unique bond and shared intentions. This experience will end with an optional group share and an opportunity to create a paper frame to display their poem at home.

This space is playful yet meaningful, designed to strengthen family identity through the beauty of words.
