Join us as April explores the kinship between basket-making and soulcraft, poetry and patience. April will read some of her poems, there will be prompts and generative writing, and then we will literally interlace our words together through a guided paper weave process. Our lively Q&A will focus on the relationship of different kinds of crafting to the act of writing. Together, we will explore how it is to create poetry through a multidisciplinary lens.
April Tierney is a poet, craftswoman, mother, and lover of stories. She is the author of four full length collections of poetry, including Matter/Mother (Wayfarer Books 2024). Her work has been nominated for The Pushcart Prize and featured in Orion Magazine, Deep Times: A Journal of the Work that Reconnects, Clarion Poetry Magazine, and Real Ground Journal, among others. April also guides nature-based writing circles for adults and kids as well as seasonal art making workshops. To learn more visit www.apriltierney.com.
