Beginner and seasoned writers alike will gather in a neighborhood park for an hour of poetry inspired by the natural world of your neighborhood! In this hands-on workshop, local artist and writer R.A. Morris will provide instruction on how to use nature as inspiration for poetry. After a free-writing period, participants will regroup to share their work. Join us as we explore the neighborhood and the creative benefits of observation, meditation, and free-form creation. All that is required for participation is an open mind and a willingness to learn!
