Minneapolis, MN
January 11, 2024 from 10 am – 12 pm at The Playwright Center in Minneapolis. Free childcare provided.
Join nationally celebrated playwright Sharon Bridgforth to experience sharing from her soon to be released book Before You Go: An Offering (Tripwire Harlot Press). Sharon describes the book as “a collection of prayers, fragile memories, heartache, questions, and conjurings of physical release, offered in support of Shifting.”
Sharon will lead you through prompts and practices around what it means to be a parent while navigating complex relationships with your parent(s)—whether they are still with you or have passed.
