Explore the art of turning personal memories into poetry in this hands-on workshop led by a published poet. Each session offers prompts, readings, and collaborative feedback to help you capture the moments, people, and places that shaped you. Writers of all levels are invited to experiment with language, discover their creative voice, and share work in a supportive environment. Students will leave the workshop with a collection of new poems, practical tools to sustain a writing practice, and a deeper understanding of how lived experience can be shaped into art.
