Experience art at a new level and use it to inspire your writing with Poet Jodie Hollander. In this workshop, participants will respond poetically to Coconino Center for the Arts’ new exhibition Cumulus: The Art of Meteorology. Students will study examples of celebrated poems that respond to or were inspired by art and will be led through a variety of writing activities, ultimately leading to a draft of an original poem. Students will discuss poetic techniques such as the use of vivid imagery, the importance of sonics, how to shape a poetic line as well as techniques for drafting and revision.
