I’m leading a workshop starting on April 7 at The Arts Center in Troy, NY. Join us! Even if you write prose (fiction, non-fiction, essays, etc.), poetry can feed your creative work. This kind of attention to language can help you in any genre.

*Poetry: Playing On The Page
Thursdays at The Arts Center in Troy, NY
April 7, 2016 to May 19, 2016 — 06:00 PM to 08:00 PM

Laugh, cry, prickle, twinkle, be silent. Do this or that or nothing. Whatever it is in a poem that makes you want to do those things is what Dylan Thomas called the poetry of it. Sounds pleasurable, doesn’t it? It is! Let’s have some fun with language. We’ll pour it all out, then play with where the words go. Never made a poem before? Not sure what one is? Jump in – the water’s fine! Been loving poetry for decades? You’ll fit right in, too. We’ll read, write, talk, and respond to each other’s work with kind attention. We’ll come away with a small batch of our own poems.

Maximum enrollment: 16.
Member: $151 | Non-Member: $168
