Finding Purpose Through Poetry: Marina Mason on OPEN Monday

On this week’s edition of OPEN Monday on BronxNet, host Doctor Bob Lee sits down with Bronx native Marina Mason, Educator, and Author who discusses how she is inspiring others to find their God-given purpose through her foremost work, “Heartpenned: Poems Written in the Secret Place”. Since 2018 Marina has supported Thrive Collective’s R.H.Y.M.E program through curriculum development and continues to serve on the team today as an education specialist and mentor with the Barnabas Project. At Thrive Collective we believe in the transformative power of art and encourage our students to discover how words shape the world. It’s one thing to share why art matters it’s another thing to show it! Marina doesn’t just talk it or teach it she lives it and we’re proud to have such a marvel on the team.
