Twilight & Desire - QUEERHOUSE

TWILIGHT & DESIRE: A Sacred Reading & Writing Workshop

What is your personal brand of heroin? Are you attracted to people with the skin of a killer? Do you find yourself wondering: wildest dreams, where the hell have you been loca?! Join us as we read quotes from Twilight through the theme of desire!

This sacred reading and writing workshop is hosted by Jamie Rhiannon Fehribach (@wildernessofpaper), who will guide us in using one of our cult-classic favorites to meaningfully reflect on some of life’s big questions.

During this workshop you will

- engage in thought-provoking conversations

- write about desire with the help of reflective prompts

- build a creative written piece as a group

- broaden your perspective on what a book like Twilight can actually teach us

There are no right or wrong answers - only curiosity, so come as you are and discover what the theme of desire means to you!

Sacred reading is the practice of reading a text mindfully and intentionally. During the reading, we read beyond the surface level narrative of the page and instead explore what the story, characters, or sentences make us think of. Think of it as a game of association, where we are exploring the text and just seeing what it makes us think of, rather than reading the book as we would normally and trying to necessarily understand the plot itself.

To guide a sacred reading practice, we select a theme to keep in mind as we read. We then discuss with each other, in order to learn from each other’s perspectives. There is no right or wrong answer, and you can have any background (cultural, religious, other beliefs etc.) to participate in a sacred reading.

This event is part of 🌈🏠 QUEERHOUSE - a three-day artistic occupation, creative recharging station, and community-building hub for the attendees of Queer Pride Amsterdam hosted by Poetry Trapper Keeper at Treehouse NDSM.
