A Thousand Words: A Visual Poetry Workshop
Join poet and artist Dan Power for a hands-on writing workshop, where we’ll be blurring the line between poem and picture. Drawing from concrete poetry and photography, this workshop will take your writing to unexpected places, revealing connections between imagery and the imaginary. Transform poems into pictures and pictures into poems as you create your own visual poetry.
