Perspectives on Positive Aging: Pilgrim at Home

The Muses Among Us: Eloquent Listening and Other Pleasures of the Writer’s Craft book cover

Part of the pleasure of daily life can be paying attention to the way little events in the outer world can stimulate discoveries in the inner life. Kim Stafford will talk about this experience as a “pilgrim at home,” a seeker after beauties, puzzles, stories, and other encounters savored by daily writing practice.

Recommended reading: The Muses Among Us: Eloquent Listening and Other Pleasures of the Writer’s Craft by Kim Stafford

Stafford is the founding director of the Northwest Writing Institute at Lewis and Clark College, and author of a dozen books of poetry and prose.

Seating is available on a first-come, first-served basis.
