Workshop: Deep Dive Poetry (18yo+)

Deep Dive Poetry Workshop with Kris Whorton

(Ages 18+)

April 14: 2-4 pm

$45/workshop

Do you write poetry but feel you could use a little guidance? Are you stuck, frustrated, or looking for a way to shake up—or go deeper into—your poems? Do you struggle to recognize whether your drafts have a solid emotional center, and engage and surprise the reader?

If you've answered yes to any of these questions, this comprehensive two-hour workshop is for you. We will spend time with generative writing exercises, and approach revision with specific strategies. Our goal will be to create a rhythmic flow between creative exploration and deliberate craft refinement. Bring a pen or pencil (or crayons, markers, or whatever you like), paper, and a few poems you are ready to revise. If you don't have anything to revise, don't worry. We'll create new drafts together. 

Minimum of 6 students must be met in order for class to make.
