The Work Poetry Workshop: Saturday Afternoon Edition
July 10, 2021 @ 11:30 am - 12:30 pm
Free – $20Join us from 11:30 am – 2:00 pm on the second Saturday of every month for The Work.
Upcoming Saturday afternoon workshops will take place on July 10 and August 14.
These workshops will take place on Zoom until it is safe to do so again in person.
The Work is a drop-in poetry writing workshop for beginners as well as more experienced writers. Poetry encourages empathy and compassion, and sparks the shifts in consciousness which can lead to healing, personal growth, and an interest in fighting for progressive social change.
We will read and discuss poetry, write several new poems, and give each writer feedback on at least one of the drafts composed during the workshop.
The cost for the workshop is a suggested donation of $20 to Christopher Luna’s PayPal account: christopherjlun
“Suggested” means that we would like for you to join us regardless of whether or not you can afford it right now. No one will be turned away for lack of funds.
Bring a poem to share as a way of saying hello.
