Writing the Poem Workshop w Ashley Toliver | Sep 16 – Oct 14
September 16, 2019 @ 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm
$210 – $237What happens when we expand our creative focus and let go of our expectations? In this workshop, we’ll use writing practices and generative techniques, explore poems and strategies, all with the goal of completing the workshop with a handful of new poems. Can we find liberation from the pressures we place on ourselves and our work? Join the experiment and let’s find out! Maximum: 12 writers. [Note: This workshop is designed to be paired with Ashley’s Revising the Poem workshop in Session II. Poets are welcome to take both, or just one.]
