In this generative poetry workshop, we will immerse ourselves in the landscape of contemporary poetry and craft our own poems for constructive workshopping. Each week, we will read works from poets like Jericho Brown, Natalie Diaz, Chet’la Sebree, Diane Suess, and Danez Smith, and use techniques and inspirations from them to kickstart our writing process. Participants can expect to write a poem-a-week based on a prompt corresponding to the weekly readings, with the opportunity to workshop at least 3 poems across the length of the course.
LIVE VIDEO CONFERENCE: This workshop will be held via our online video conferencing platform, Zoom. The dates and times will remain the same. You can view brief tutorials on using the platform here.
