Poetry Salon with Amber Allen-Peirson

Come to the studio to bathe in beautiful language and creative surprise and discovery with celebrated local poet Amber Allen-Peirson!

Amber is the author of the recently released book of poems The Unrooted Bloom.  She is a strong empath, a mother, a writer, a film maker, an activist, educator, and a public speaker, focused on self-development and working in Black and Brown communities to cultivate health, communication, and empowerment (especially with young people).  She is a survivor and her lived experience provides a range of emotions and stories that she weaves into literal metaphors which provoke reflection, healing, and visceral sensations in readers and listeners.  

The process of writing is profoundly spiritual and like prayer for Amber.  What she produces in her process is a gift and treat for human consumption.  In The Unrooted Bloom, Amber has offered a range of thoughts on different relationships, experiences, and testimonies.
