Words Aloud: Alexis O'Hara Workshop

Don't miss a lecture and creative writing workshop with interdisciplinary artist Alexis O'Hara. Using exercises created by the Surrealists as well as other games, this workshop aims to unleash creativity and free the mind from its habitual neural pathways. The workshop is interactive and will highlight intelligent approaches to absurdity. Participants are asked to bring a notebook, a pen, a short text and an object that represents home for them.

Montreal's boundary pusher Alexis O'Hara works in the realms of cabaret, pop music, spoken-word, stand-up comedy, vocal and electronic music, photography and sound installation. A poetess, a philosopher queen, a freestylin' and speakbeating chameleon, O'Hara draws you into her world and provokes you into marveling at the absurdity of the human condition.
