Building relationships across differences through music, poetry, & active listening
VILLAGE ENGAGE’S ANNUAL SYMPOSIUM
In a time of increasing polarization and division, Village Engage's 2024 symposium brings together community members of all ages and backgrounds for building connections across differences. Our theme this year is finding common ground through the arts. High school students from Legacy Early College and Greenville Tech Charter will perform original music they composed with nationally acclaimed musician Kyshona Armstrong. All attendees will engage in a poetry writing workshop with poets Moody Black and Melissa Whiteford St. Clair.
During lunch, participants will also connect with other attendees through a My Neighbor’s Voice listening activity. The event will be held at The Peace Center's Gunter Theatre, and attire is business casual.
Individual tickets are $40; lunch is included, and funds directly support Village Engage's programming in Greenville, SC.
