Description
Have you always wanted to write poetry but felt intimidated by its rigid guidelines? No shame here! This generative workshop will discuss the exclusionary histories and societal expectations of poetry, with a major focus on how to break them. We will explore work by Audre Lorde, Nikki Giovanni, and Chen Chen. After experimenting with a series of prompts, all writers will have the chance to share their poetry with the group. Come join us!
