SUMMER STORYTELLING STUDIO: Writing Daring, Delicious, Defiant Poetry (DAY 3 OF 3)

  • Octavia's Bookshelf 1353 North Hill Ave Pasadena United States (map)

Enter as a beginner, leave calling yourself a ‘poet’!

Poetry can do fascinating things. It can transform words into pigments that paint watercolors before our very eyes. It can burrow under our skin like a ferret and tickle us from the inside; it can melt into glue and stick with us for a lifetime. 

In this workshop, you’ll enter as a beginner, and you’ll leave calling yourself a ‘poet’! Join us and: 

+ Venture through different forms of poetry, from sharp and spare to lush and lyrical.

+ Build grand orchestral crescendos or sultry rhythms: We’ll play with cadence, sound, and flow to match the mood of your unique poetry style. 

+ From abstractions to metaphors and melodies, explore the techniques that make a poem linger in the minds of readers.

+ Tap into the senses and transform ordinary moments into unforgettable imagery.

+ Learn how to take a second look, and sharpen a rough draft into a masterpiece. 

You’ll leave this workshop with at least one completed poem and a deeper trust in your creative instincts. 

This is a 3-Part Workshop. Join us Mondays July 13, July 20 and July 27 @6:00–7:30PM. Let’s have fun!
