Your Poetry Hour

Do you want to pause, and take the time to open into poetry? Could your writing life use more attention, experimentation, and inspiration? Do you want to enjoy the power of writing in community?

In this hour, led by experienced writer and educator Nadia Rhook, we'll respond to a series of guided visual and poetry prompts that unlock your creativity to generate new ideas, words, and poems.

Your facilitator:
