AFTER THE BEGINNING: WHAT’S NEXT?
Taught by Georgia Popoff
Participants in this 8-week session will examine their work through a series of lenses, each leading to further development and revision. As each element of literary devices and considerations is introduced, poems will transform and reveal. In the spirit of discovery and collaborative growth, there will be an opportunity to workshop some of the work as a “best test.” We will also examine poets whose work exemplify any of the various lenses we will use to answer three basic questions: What? Then What? and So What? as we employ poetic craft to bring a poem to its fullest potential. For even the seasoned poet, these considerations strengthen the keen eye needed in effective revision.

EKPHRASIS CREATIVE WRITING WORKSHOP
Taught by Mark Blickley
What is Ekphrasis creative writing? The word Ekphrasis translates to “description” in Greek and ekphrastic writing is a form of creative writing describing a work of art or visual image.
By imaginatively playing with a visual work of art, the writer can expand its meaning—not in terms of enlarging the original work, but in terms of offering more possibilities. By bringing two imaginations into conversation with one another—that of the visual artist and that of the writer—something new is born.
