What can avant-garde poets from the past and present teach us about how to make work that feels exciting and fresh? Experience the FIFTEENTH iteration of this beloved class as we look for some new and old sources of inspiration in poets who think outside the box.
Join us for a generative, asynchronous workshop where we write together and give encouraging empowering feedback. Occasional online office hours, and this time, Stephanie will provide an occasional social hour space for students – also optional.
