Are you drawn to write poetry but baffled at how to begin? Or are you a poetry-curious prose writer? In this four-week class we'll explore what makes a poet's voice unmistakable—the magic of images and metaphors, sounds and rhythms, diction and voice. In this workshop, we’ll study the fundamentals of poetry. Using illustrative examples, we'll create word experiments and learn simple poetic techniques. Writers will be given optional prompts to take home and try out on their own. The atmosphere will be casual and interactive, where writers are encouraged to try new things and share their work even when it is still in rough form. The emphasis is on discovery and pleasure.

No previous experience necessary!
