SUMMARY:Again and Again and Again: on writing and reflection
DESCRIPTION:A prose-based generative writing workshop hosted by Tori Rego and Taylor Thornburg.\n\n\n“Again and Again and Again: On Writing and Reflection” is a prose-based generative writing workshop hosted by Tori Rego and Taylor Thornburg. Participants will study excerpts of fiction and nonfiction works fixated on memory\, recollection\, and narrative form\, including Vladimir Nabokov’s Speak Memory\, Marcel Proust’s In Search of Lost Time\, and Taylor Thornburg’s Agathe: 6:00pm to 7:27. Workshop participants will be led through a series of writing prompts to probe their own memories in search of weaving new stories that interlace the past\, the present\, and all the spaces inbetween.

SUMMARY:Snacks with Chats: Let’s Talk Local!
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening of community\, fundraising and a discussion on organizing and local elections. Hosted by The Local Lab co.\n\n\nJoin us for our first Chats With Snacks of 2026! \nThis gathering is all about local elections\, fundraising\, and creativity. \nAmerica is celebrating 250 years of life this year! Can you believe it? I have learned that the things I love most about this country are: \n1.) the fact that we get to fundraise at a small level to support each other when the support structures around us aren’t working! \n2.) local elections make my life better (even if the federal government might* hate me) \nSo bringing my joys together\, thanks to my gratefulness for 250 years\, we will spend an evening fundraising for ICIRR\, listening to music from local artists creating new works to share with us\, and having conversations about local elections and how we can strengthen our communities. \nI’m excited to see you all back at The Understudy on March 9th at 7p \n-Kevin\, founder of The Local Lab co. \n \nTLDR?\nCome through to:– Snack and chat with fellow artists & neighbors– Experience short performances– Express yourself in conversations and hear theannouncement of this season’s theme– Share your new works or ideas in a welcoming space \nOur event is free & open to the public 🙂
