#About the event
Duration: 180 minutes
This workshop involves a diverse reading of poems that are used to light the fuse that leads to finding wonder in the commonplace.
Our time will involve group discussion and a number of exercises that focus on how we can see the world anew, through poetry’s shapeshifting lens.
A workshop tailored for beginner’s and more experienced poets alike.
