Poetry and Pottery

Our favorite annual summer event is back! Come join potters from Wong Works Pottery and our writing mentors at Poetry Heals for this FREE arts event in downtown Manitou Springs!

This year we are refreshing the event with new activities so that both new and returning attendees will have plenty to enjoy. Sign up for a turn to throw a pot on the wheel and come sit in on a fun writing exercise while the potters glaze and fire your masterpiece! And don’t forget to contribute a word to our community poem!

This is an all ages event open to all regardless of skill level, and is made possible by generous funding from the Manitou Art Culture and Heritage Board (MACH), the Sheila Fortune Foundation, the Bee Vradenburg Foundation, and Colorado Creative Industries.
