Join us at Squirrelly for Paper & Pen, a new poetry workshop! Each month will explore a different theme, and January's theme is "Poems for New Beginnings". Together, we will read and discuss poems–from classic to experimental to contemporary. Then participants will be guided through generative writing exercises culminating in an original poem and sharing circle.
All experience levels are welcome and encouraged. Just bring your favorite notebook, writing utensil, and creative curiosity.
This workshop is open to both adults and children, and taught by Monica Peña. Monica is an experienced leader of artistic experimentation and programming. She began her own creative career as an experimental filmmaker and has since collaborated with hundreds of filmmakers, visual artists, poets, and others to make their best ideas happen. Driven by a sincere belief in the transformative power of creativity, she loves guiding people to expand their creative potential.
This is a great opportunity for parents, kids, and grandparents to create art together. Join us!
