Henceforth, I ask not good fortune,
I myself am good fortune.

What’s Going On Here? Inquiring Into Our Human Life on Earth

March 8, 2020 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
  • « Literary Arts Presents EVERYBODY READS – Tommy Orange, author of There There
  • Reading by Oregon Poet Laureate Kim Stafford at Milwaukie Public Library »

Prabu and Johnny–sometimes joined by Charles Erickson–have been meeting on Sundays at Taborspace to talk about the kinds of things that coffee shop philosophers talk about. We recently studied the PBS series The Power of Myth, in which Joseph Campbell was interviewed in 1988 by Bill Moyers.

What’s Going On Here? went on vacation to Mexico for most of December and January. We had a great workshop with Kim Stafford called “Writing and Talking the Art of Living” in Guanajuato, from December 28th through January 1st.

We have resumed our weekly dialogue-and-study group in the Library at Taborspace. We meet on Sundays from 3 to 5 pm.

Currently we are using Shakespeare’s work as a jumping-off-point for discussions that range wide and dive deep. Having spent some time with Romeo & Juliet, we are moving on to Measure for Measure, starting on February 16th. You are invited! You can also use the contact form on this website if you want to know more, or have any questions.
