Monthly Poetry Writing Workshop: Spirituality and Poetry; Grounded in Awe Led by Lisa Breger
Monday, January 19 – 2-3:30 pm in Edwards Hall
What stirs in us when we reach for a poem, whether sitting down to write or read the work of a favorite poet? Why do poems stay with us and continue to inform our lives?
In this workshop, we’ll approach poetry as a vehicle for living more fully in the present and deepening our humanity. Each month we’ll focus on an element of craft in a particular theme to generate new work.
This class is for anyone interested in poetry as a spiritual practice. No previous writing experience is required to enjoy the pleasures of creative expression. Come join us and be inspired! Please click here to RSVP.
Suggested donation of $20. Donations may be made in-person by cash or check or mailed to Open Spirit at 39 Edwards Street, Framingham, MA 01701. If you prefer to donate via credit card, please click here.
