An Evening of poetry and song with Noel Paul Stookey and his daughter A.S. Aubrey

LISTENING FOR THE NOTES

The Gift of Word & Song in Challenging Times

Join Noel Paul Stookey of Peter, Paul & Mary and his daughter, poet A.S. Aubrey in an inspiring evening of conversation, poetry and song about the power of listening in these times, and how the creative process can heal and express what matters. Stookey will reflect on the inspiration behind several of his songs, and Aubrey will share what listening has meant to her as a poet. Both will explore and discuss how creative expression can bring us together in moments of challenge and include the audience in both reflection and song.

BONUS:

Aubrey’s poetry chapbook, ‘Hide & Seek: Poems for Being Found in a Lost World’” will be mailed to all audience members, included in ticket price, as a memento of the evening,  after its release on Thanksgiving 2026 by Finishing Line Press.

Named by presidential inaugural poet Richard Blanco as “exemplify[ing] what poetry does best,” Hide & Seek: Poems for Being Found in a Lost World explores themes of mortality, purpose and hope with “rapturous lyricism” and “enthralling language.” At once fragile and fierce, this collection reminds us that within endings lie openings – and that in listening carefully we may find ourselves met by life’s inevitable embrace.
