Create a special memory about love with your family and friends of all ages by enjoying free, hands-on programming in this extra-special setting.

Following the workshops, there will be live poetry performances by NPP, an open mic poetry jam for all ages, and a "Publishing Wall" to allow visitors to share their creations with the world.
