Program Description

Event Details

The Gathering, a new monthly salon series hosted at the Equity Resource Center & Collection, is inspired by the spirit of the Harlem Renaissance and 1860's Paris. Each month, community members come together to share conversation, creativity, and joy around the work of equity. With rotating co-hosts and themes, no two evenings are alike—expect poetry readings, music, storytelling, and space to reflect, connect, and be reenergized in the work of building a more just and equitable world.

Join us and our February co-host Lanlan Xu, current Commissioner on the AAPI Commission of Howard County. Lanlan chose the theme of Dreaming Forward and plans a relaxing evening to help us settle our bodies and nervous systems long enough to dream of the future we want for ourselves and our community.
