Fall 2025 Events at Kogawa House
This season, our programs trace the many ways we tell stories: through names and bodies, recipes and memories, poems and performance. As autumn unfolds, we look forward to welcoming you into shared spaces of reflection, creativity, and community, whether you join us in person at the house, online, or somewhere in between.
August Events at Kogawa House
As summer winds down, we continue to offer a range of regular events—from poetry jams and music circles to writing workshops and storytelling collections. This month, we feature a special evening with poet Lindi Nolte and the Maza Arts Collective, alongside our regular gatherings.
