Vita Poetica: An Arts & Faith Collective

Discussion of participants' poems to offer encouragement and revision suggestions.

We invite participants to bring a poem they have written – one they would like to improve through a process of group response, encouragement, and suggestions. For the first hour, we will share two or three of these poems among the entire group, with the leader facilitating discussion. The leader will also offer some guidelines for effective revision. Then we will break out into small groups and engage in the same process, reading and discussing a poem from each member of the group. When the entire class returns, we’ll share as many of these poems, plus revision suggestions, as possible.This workshop is limited to 15 participants. After spots are filled, registrants will be placed on the waitlist and notified if a spot opens up. If you're not able to attend for any reason, please cancel your registration through Eventbrite so that a spot can be opened up for someone else.A link invitation will be sent to registrants prior to the event.Leader: John Morris has taught workshops at the Writer's Center in Bethesda, MD, for many years.  He has published two collections of poetry, and his work has appeared in numerous journals.  He is a member of Seekers Church.
