Blackout Poetry & Sacred Text | August 28, 2024

Blackout Poetry & Sacred Text | August 28, 2024

Blackout poetry, also known as erasure or redacted poetry, is a type of found poetry that involves obscuring a large portion of an existing text to create a new poem. In this one-hour workshop led by poet and educator Lily Greenburg we will apply the practice of blackout poetry to several passages of scripture as a means of illuminating these familiar texts.

When: Wednesday, August 28th

Where: Grace Church Nyack (Memorial Hall)  | 130 First Avenue Nyack, NY 10960

Come find out how we can plan for the future by looking back at the past!

What is it?

Fr. Dustin will lead a discussion sharing his experience with an “existing conditions survey” done by a historic preservation architect.
The team visits a site, and carefully examines, measures and studies a building, and creates a survey of the conditions of the property in its current state.

What happens after that?

The document can become a valuable tool that churches can use to make long-term plans for buildings and how to preserve and update them for the best use of our congregation.

How do I participate?

The program includes supper and begins at 6:30 p.m. June 12 in Memorial Hall. Fr. Dustin will begin his talk promptly at 7.
Please register here and us know what you can bring to share for supper: Preservation Project.
