Writing, Reading, Re-Thinking Poems – FINE ARTS WORK CENTER in Provincetown
Fine Arts Work Center In Provincetown

2023 Summer Workshops

Gail Mazur Writing, Reading, Re-Thinking Poems July 15 to July 20, 2018 Tuition: $600 Workshop: 9am-Noon Discipline: Poetry OPEN TO ALL On-site Housing NOT Available - Off-site Housing Options

We will spend the week looking at the work of three poets, which will be waiting for you in Provincetown, and looking together at poems by the participants. Often the best and most surprising inspirations for revision and for new poems come from looking and reading. Together we’ll give ourselves a figurative shake or two, and see what new directions our poems take us in.

Please bring copies of 2 or 3 of your own poems you would like to discuss. And also bring 1 poem you have recently read and liked. (Number of copies announced two weeks prior to workshop start date.)
