Founded at BRUNA press and archive in 2018, MUTTER COURAGE is an occasional reading series and conversation space in BELLINGHAM WA currently curated by YANARA Friedland and STEFANIA Heim. MUTTER COURAGE showcases writers engaging with poetic, embodied, and intersectional practices. The series title refers to the name of the main character in Berthold Brecht’s eponymous play. A relentless maker in a war-torn world, MUTTER COURAGE inspires this series, which unfolds in expressions of courage in voice. Readings are held at the GEHEIM Gallery at 1228 Bay Street, downtown.
