Poetic Ruzafa Walk: A Summertime Barrio in Love
A perfect weekend starter for duos, solos, trios & groups of friends!
How do we fall in love with a city, someone, each other, ourselves?
The relationship between architecture, memory, and desire is the subject of this walkshop through Ruzafa, both the imaginary barrio and a real neighborhood.
in city mazes we count on love
to find each other in the dark
to thread a path one poem at a time
Poetry in translation. A city in motion. You, in love.
A perfect summertime evening activity. We'll walk the (un)familiar streets and pause to read/recite/write poems. How many ways can you meet a poem or a lover?! You'd be surprised...
We'll start outside the Parc Central at 19:00 and finish around the Mercado de Ruzafa by 20:30-ish in time for your Friday night plans.
This walkshop experience is free. The host will pass a hat at the end for welcome donations, but the point is to enjoy every step 'n story as we become a walking poem.
