Crash Course Rainbow: A Generative Workshop on Color & Poetry (ZOOM)
The price has been corrected from the print catalog.
All Levels | “A lane of Yellow led the eye…” -Emily Dickinson
As the light lengthens its autumnal slant, it’s the perfect time to reawaken color in our writing. Drawing from artistic, literary, and scientific texts for inspiration — as well as our own experiences and imagination — we’ll expand our synesthetic palette and experiment with a prismatic array of generative in-class prompts. Awaken your senses and writing life! Slanted toward poetry; all genres welcome.
Due to COVID-19, all classes will take place online until further notice. If there's a possibility that your class might take place in person, you will be notified in advance. Even if classes can be held in person, there will always be a hybrid option to participate via Zoom.
Classes with "Zoom" in the title will be held via Zoom even after our doors open. Classes listed as "Online" will be held on Wet Ink, our platform for asynchronous learning.
All times are listed in Pacific Time.
