2023 Summer Workshops

Gail Mazur Writing Poems: Vision & Revision August 9 to August 14, 2020 Tuition: $650 Workshop: 9am-12pm Discipline: Poetry OPEN TO ALL On-site Housing NOT Available - Off-site Housing Options

Often the best, most surprising inspirations for revision comes from close readings of poems new to us. Together we’ll look at the work of several poets and write new poems. Every day! We’ll give ourselves and our writing a figurative shake or two, talk about each others’ works, we’ll keep going, and see poems in new ways.
