Event Details

How can one engage with a particular environment (urban, rural, or otherwise) through poetry? Does traveling affect how we engage with and see our home environs? What does it mean to travel? In this workshop we will explore techniques and exercises to generate site specific work, and we'll look at some examples of vivid, place-based poems. Expect to go home with a list of writing prompts and pointers to use in workshops or in your own writing.
