Lighting The Kindling
Can we spark creativity and discovery through intentional spaces and conversation?
Over To The Youth’s
recently sat down with Abram Max of Beauty Seed to discuss poetry, language, and the nature of communication through physical and digital mediums. Tom also shares insights on what he’s been able to bring from his poetic endeavours into OTTY spaces, and vice versa.Abram recently ran a workshop for OTTY members to introduce them to some of his techniques for rewriting the narratives of our lives and the stories of who we are to great success. Abram will be returning to share more of his techniques with youth members on November 17th. There’s still time to become a member of OTTY before the session commences - use the button below to fill out an application.
