Prospect Poetry Writing Workshop

During this workshop, participants will learn about taking risks and making leaps through poetry to surprise and engage their readers –– and themselves! We'll do some collective thinking, word play, drafting, and sharing (for those who want to). Everyone will leave with a poem, or the beginnings of a poem, that they can continue to work on. All are welcome –– beginners, seasoned poets, and anyone in between! Please bring a notebook, a writing utensil, and creative energy!
