Held on the evening of Daylight Saving Time—when light quite literally returns—A Light Exists in Spring is inspired by the poetry of Emily Dickinson and the quiet power of hope before growth begins.
This intimate, reflective evening blends food, poetry, and storytelling to honor moments of transition: from darkness to light, from uncertainty to stability, from crisis to care.
