Join us on February 27th, 2025
Archway is hosting Diverse VOICES, an emerging spoken poetry event that aims to create an inclusive and empowering space for the community, especially for Indigenous, Black and people of color (IBPOC).
Journaling and writing poetry are proven tools for healing and expression. Through collectively sharing this poetry, we hope to have our voices be heard and to inspire empowerment and resiliency.
We invite you to join us on Thursday, February 27th, 2025 from 6:00pm to 7:30pm at Open Space (33765 Essendene Ave) in downtown Abbotsford for an evening of connection and poetry.

“When we share our lived experiences this is a portal to being seen, being heard, and connecting with one another. By learning perspectives different than our own, we get to expand our own world views.”
