Poetry Workshop

Explore multiple writing and revision techniques, drawing possibilities for new work from your own work and the poems of others.

Learn to open up your poems to further invention and revise them to invite both surprise and mastery.

You read published poems and essays to encourage shared discussions about the craft, style, aesthetics, process and psychology of writing.

Finally, you gain insight into the world of publication through researching and sharing information on literary journals and assembling a submission packet.

You emerge with a good number of new or revised poems and a collection of useful writing and revision tools, as well as skills for discussing new work one on one or in a workshop setting.

Enrollment is limited to 18.
