Embark on a poetic journey with Sukina Noor and guests in an event that stands at the intersection of poetry and the sacred. Expect a tenderly curated experience where sound healing and poetry blend, creating a space of mindfulness for the poetry to resonate deeper. Experience poetry after meditation; can it heighten your connection with the words? Witness verses unfold amid sound bath vibrations and the healing call of the flute. Enter the performance space with reverence, like entering a sacred temple of words. Let the words and soundscape wash over you. Feel free to bring your own blankets, cushions and anything comfortable (there will be some chairs also).
