SUMMARY:Lyrical Sanctuary Featuring Tasneem Jassar
DESCRIPTION:Tasneem Jassar is a Palestinian writer and poet. She graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee with a Creative Writing bachelor’s degree and a minor in Women and Gender studies. Jassar was also 2024 Woodland Pattern’s Milwaukee Emerging Poet fellow.  She hopes that the words she writes and shares\, inspire others and give them a deeper insight into themselves and the world they live in. Her poetry often includes themes of motherhood\, sisterhood\, and Palestinian storytelling.  \n6:00 pm – 6:45 pm – Creative Writing Workshop (Union 119)  \nThe Language of Liberation – a poetic workshop where we will write\, reflect\, and uncover our understanding of liberation. Through guided prompts\, intimate discussions\, and creative exercises\, we’ll explore the barriers that bind us and our writing\, and discover how poetry can become a tool for healing and untying the knots of oppression. This workshop invites you to reflect on how poetry is an act of resistance\, whether you’re liberating yourself from fear\, generational cycles\, or simply seeking to define freedom on your own terms. Join us to listen\, share\, and explore the power of your own words. \n7:00 pm – 9:00 pm – Open Mic & Feature Performance (Union Fireside Lounge)
