Join poet Carla Galdo for a monthly six-session poetry workshop

Poets of all levels of experience are welcome in this six-session workshop. In advance of each session, participants will submit an original poem of any style to the group and the instructor. Each poet will receive verbal and written feedback during the workshop. Each participant is a vital part of the workshop process and will play a role in offering written feedback on poems to others. In addition, we will explore some of the enduring questions about writing poetry, read great exemplar poems, both old and new, and briefly study six different metrical forms of the English-language poetic tradition.Professor’s BioCarla Galdo is a poet, editor, and essayist.
