In celebration of Asian American, Native Hawaiian & Pacific Islander Heritage Month (AANHPI), poet and activist Katerina Jeng will be reading poems from their debut poetry book, Gospel of a Whole Sun. The book chronicles Katerina journey of self-discovery as a queer Asian American femme, and encourages us to reflect on artmaking as a path to self-actualization and liberation.

This program is designed to build a space for individuals who identify as AANHPI (Asian American, Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander) to come together through guided prompts and community discussion and reflect on their own personal and creative journeys. Participants will also tap into the senses, energy, and support of the elements in the museum's Sensory Garden to create our own pieces of writing that reflect on the seasons of our lives, and celebrate how we've bloomed into who we are today.

This program is included with general admission to the museum.
