HR Webster Towards Abundance: Revision as the Site of Joyful Experimentation Poetry July 25 to July 29, 2022 Tuition: $550.00 Class Size: 12 Session: summer Level: 1 week asynchronous workshop

ASYNCHRONOUS with LIVE ELEMENTS

In this workshop we will explore revision as a tool not simply for honing and perfecting but for re-encountering our work in search of surprise and possibility. Each day of the workshop, we will try new revision experiments and produce multiple re-imaginings of a small group of poems. We will embrace variance, multiverse, and play.

Optional Live Element: a final live Zoom reading for participants to share their work.
