Is poetry words only? Or is it a concept, an experience, a conduit? Some stories need more than words; some poems yearn to be something else. So, why should poetry limit itself to one medium when its essence is liminal? In this workshop, we’ll explore ways to weave richer stories and dimensional layers, not always achievable with words alone, by using our hands and physical materials. We’ll ignite our minds and hearts in a new way. There will be no use of digital elements in any part of this class, but you may get a cute package in the mail.
