Poetry Writers' Workshop with George Wallace

Stimulate your writing through exercises based on re-discovering and using your imaginative skills through generative wordplay.

This workshop encourages you to brainstorm your own prompts and trigger ideas for new poems, in a friendly interactive group setting, followed by a group reading in the evening. The workshop will be held from 3PM-5PM; come back for the group reading from 7PM-9PM.

Imagination-based poetry moves away from the editing focus of traditional critique-based writing workshops, working instead with exercises that enhance the writer's ability to create space for the imagination to explore, invent, discover and roam.
