Admit it - you're curious! If you've been toying with the idea of writing poetry but aren't sure where to start, we have the class for you.
This four-part series will help you go from "curious" to "well-versed" by providing a crash-course in voice, craft, canon, and what it means to embrace your inner poet. Each week, we'll discuss contemporary, multicultural writers and their work, build community through writing exercises and opportunities to share, and find ways to incorporate poetry into our daily lives. All are welcome.
