WLLO hosts a running series of Monday Ted Talks via Zoom, open to all villagers.
On February 22, Paulann Peterson, Oregon‘s 6th Poet Laureate, presented her writing--poetry, prose--some "creatures of memory," and talked about her writing process using "springboards" and imagery, answer questions, respond to comments, etc.
On March 1st you are invited to bring pens and paper and with Paulann‘s guidance begin generating material and writing. You do not need to have attended on Feb 22nd to gain from this session, but your experience will be richer if you choose to do both.
Every Monday at 1 pm they watch online a pre-selected Ted Talk, followed by a discussion and ideas for next week. They often enjoy lunch while meeting.
Please remember to mute yourself!

So, we invite any other artists in River West Village to send us photos of past and present projects.
