Solastalgia: Poetry and Prose Workshop

RAVEN works to support Indigenous Peoples in enforcing their rights and title in court to protect their lands, sovereignty, and ways of being by partnering with First Nations bringing legal actions that seek redress for violations to Indigenous land and rights. Indigenous-led litigation is sparking transformative change across Canada, and every campaign we take on is an opportunity to redefine justice through setting legal precedents that aim to return stewardship and sovereignty to First Peoples. Through fundraising and public education activities, RAVEN is committed to advancing Indigenous rights and taking action for our shared futures by establishing environmental legacies.By supporting RAVEN, you are part of a movement that increases access to justice so that  Indigenous Peoples can afford to assert their rights and reclaim environmental stewardship through litigation against colonial governments and extractive corporations. What is at stake for Indigenous Peoples is at stake for everyone: basic rights to clean water and abundant lands that support ecosystems for all life and for all generations.

Join RAVEN, in partnership with Urban Ink, for the next instalments of our Solastalgia Community Event Series.

1885 Venables St

This series has had so much interest and requests to host in other cities, so to answer that call, the next two sessions will be taking place in Vancouver, B.C.This chapter of the series will explore the theme of Ecosystems of Care. We’ll consider the relationships and practices within communities that sustain us through times of ecological and social change. Together, we will reflect on how care flows between people, land, water, more-than-human kin, and future generations. And we’ll ask ourselves what it means to nurture resilience in an era of climate uncertainty.For this session, on August 16, 2026, there will be a Solastalgia-themed poetry and prose workshop facilitated by natasha gauthier, a mixed settler and reconnecting Indigenous multidisciplinary writer and visual artist. Through guided writing prompts, reflection, and discussion, participants will explore their relationship to place, climate change, grief, belonging, and collective care. Whether you’re an experienced writer or simply curious about writing your thoughts out, this workshop will offer a welcoming space to connect with others and express what it means to live in a changing world.Get your tickets for the poetry and prose workshop now!Location: Jim Green House Studio, 1885 Venables St, Vancouver, BCAccessibility: The Studio space is the lower level of the heritage home, accessible from the ground floor.
