July 28, 2021 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
$50This monthly craft series for BIPOC writers invites you to stretch into new forms of written expression. In July, we will enter the boundless realm of poetry. Using beloved and renowned BIPOC writers as models for poems that let the words flow, we will notice, play, practice, share and grow as writers.
Access Program
We want our writing classes to be accessible to everyone, regardless of income and background. We understand that our tuition structure can present obstacles for some people.
