About this event

In this virtual class, we'll use creative writing to articulate our wonder, care, and astonishment at the world. All experience levels are welcome-we define the role of the poet to simply be a person who pays attention. Through a wide range of weekly prompts and peer support, you'll take up the task of articulating the big and small details of your world in your own language. Because poetry can be a social art, we'll share our writing as a way to appreciate the unique and valuable perspectives within our community.

For each class, you'll need a pen and poetry notebook (or paper).

Each class will take place from 2:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. CT. You are welcome to attend all sessions of the class, or just drop in when you are available.

Just sign up once to receive a reminder and Zoom link every week!
