Presented by Sandy Carlson

Does winter get you down?  Do the cold and dark chill your creativity?  If so, this poetry class might offer the antidote.  In this poetry-writing workshop, you'll warm up your creativity with writing activities as well as imaginative games.  You'll also become familiar with winter-themed poetry that will inspire you to look at this time of year in new ways exercise your poetic hand.  "Bring a favorite pen or pencil and a spirit of play, and we'll write our way to a happy winter."  No poetry experience is required.

COST | $50, lunch is included
