POETRY FOR BEGINNERS WORKSHOP
POETRY FOR BEGINNERS
INSTRUCTOR: JACQUELINE VIOLA MOULTON
New to poetry? Intimidated by poetry? Dislike poetry? Curious about poetry? Not even sure what poetry is? Curious about poetry: how to write it, how to read it, how to even start? This poetry workshop is an easy entry into the world of poetry. There truly is no wrong way to do it! The spirit of this class is open and welcoming of writers and creatives of all skill levels. We will read and write together during this workshop and by the end of it, you will have a little collection of poems to take home!
MATERIALS
All you need is some curiosity and something to write with and something to write on! We will take a fifteen minute break in the middle of this workshop - to recharge, have a snack, walk a bit if you need - so bring whatever you need for that!
REGISTER NOW: SATURDAY+SUNDAY | DECEMBER 14+15 | 12 PM TO 2 PM | $60
