Attic Institute: FALL Online Campus: The Poet’s Apron: A Poetry Exploration on Food & Drink w Matthew Dickman
October 24, 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
$215 – $242“There is communion of more than our bodies when bread is broken and wine drunk.” ― M.F.K. Fisher
Slowly, family and friends are starting to gather again, in backyards, front porches, in kitchens, and around tables. We are breaking bread again. In this five-week class we will be exploring some of the tastiest poems written about food & drink while also writing our own. Come join me and let’s eat poetry together.
NOTE: To protect everyone during the COVID-19 pandemic, we’re offering our workshops via Zoom. All students must first sign up for a free Zoom account. Setting it up is easy. And we can help you with questions, if needed. For each class, you’ll receive a Zoom “invitation,” from the instructor. Click the link…follow the simple directions about the settings for your microphone and in-computer video, and you’re immediately in the “room” for the workshop. For critique workshops, instructors will communicate with students about the process of sharing work. For more generative workshops, students will be writing together while on Zoom.
