Reflections

River Writing™ Collective  - Fun Bus to Antelope Island for Poetry Reading 3/16/24-Events
Amy May
Through this practice, I've learned to lovingly set aside my inner critic in order to stretch into my own narrative. Finding my voice in this way has been nothing short of magical. I’m forever grateful to this community, and for the ability to share this practice with others. ~ Amy May

Fun Bus to Antelope Island for Poetry Reading 3/16/24

Saturday, March 16th.
Bus leaves North Temple Trax station (SLC) at 12:30 and returns by 5:30 pm
Antelope Island State Park fee is covered by your $2. Poetry reading free with this registration
There will be singing and snacks on the bus. Dress warmly for the outside poetry reading.

Songs from Along the Watershed is the third annual reading of irreplaceable, a collective praise poem devoted to Great Salt Lake. The poem is a prayer for the full restoration of the lake and an homage to all the species she sustains. The work is ever-swelling and contains over 400 voices.

This year, poets from Bear River, the Weber River, and the Jordan River will join their voices to create a chorus of songs from along the watershed. Youth poets will bring their particular witness to the thousands of pelicans recently exiled from Gunnison Island. Our reading will also feature special guest, Lisa Bickmore, Utah's current Poet Laureate.

Every word we read and sing will be presented directly to Great Salt Lake as an offering of love and devotion for our imperiled sacred lake.
