In this 3-part workshop, we will hone our capacity for wonder, using the tools of poetry to savor Spring’s irrepressible exuberance. We will read nature poems together, and write new poems inspired by a conspiracy of wind, soil, sun, the carbon cycle, and yearning.
Former Artist-in-Residence and published poet Becky Jaffe will lead you in playful and contemplative exercises that help you recalibrate your attunement to amazement, and share it with others through poems that are already unfurling their tendrils inside of you, looking for light. No prior experience necessary. Daydreamers welcome.
$130 for all three sessions. Pre-Registration Required.
