Poetry Workshop: Poetry of Memory and Childhood

In addition to engaging in exercises designed to awaken vivid memories, this workshop will examine how to craft an ear-pleasing line of poetry.

Students will study examples from works of master poets such as Robert Frost, Louise Bogan, and more to understand the basics of writing in meter. No experience necessary.
