Sharing Our Stories

Columbia Basin Care celebrates creative expression 

 

THE DALLES, OR —  “When I write, I feel alive," says Norman Vincent, as he grips a pencil and shares his words.

 

Thanks to a unique writing program, a group of senior citizens have been transformed into powerful poets and storytellers. The Columbia Basin Care Writers is comprised of residents from the skilled nursing facility in The Dalles who gather to read, write and share. Through writing prompts and conversation, members mine past and present for stories and poems. With the help of staff and volunteers, writers are guided through games and exercises to rev up the creative process. 

 

In conjunction with National Poetry Month, Columbia Basin Care is hosting Sharing Our Stories on Wednesday, April 24 at 4pm. Now in its second year, the event features the senior citizen writers, along with music by local pianist Rule Beasley. The event is free and the public is invited.
