NHCC HLA Herencia Speaker Series: Poetry Workshop with Leticia Urieta
December 6, 2026
2:00 pm
NHCC | HLA Salón Ortega
Join us for a poetry workshop with writer Leticia Urieta. The body carries our stories, but sometimes delving into these stories can be difficult and painful to navigate. We have to engage in acts of radical and deep reflection to fully embody and write about the traumas, beauty, pain and healing that our bodies are capable of holding.
This generative workshop will ask you to engage in these acts of radical reflection to explore your relationships to the body through free writing, poetry and creative nonfiction. We will explore how writers embody their experiences through poetry and prose by studying contemporary poets and writers who are engaging with discussions about the body and chronic illness, pain, trauma and healing. Participants will be given the opportunity to generate new work as well as to engage with their own work (or ideas) in progress. This workshop will also help participants to engage more deeply with their writing and to share their work with their peers.
This workshop is best for writers of all levels, age 16+ and materials will be provided.
Free Community Event.
