Nature Poetry Workshop

Go Back

via Zoom

Celebrate National Poetry Month in April and try your hand at poetry. No experience necessary. We’ll discuss examples of nature-based poetry, then students will write poems using different poetry forms, such as haiku and mirrored poems.

The instructor will guide students in creating their poems.

The fee for the two-day workshop is $45. Class enrollment limited to eight students.

For those students who would like to participate in Margaret Gibson's (Current State of CT Poet Laureate) Poetry workshop on April 30th there will be a discount. Please use the drop-down menu on Margaret Gibson's page when registering.
