Inspired by Robert McDowell’s Poetry As Spiritual Practice, this workshop will explore poetry and spirituality through a variety of writing exercises and prompts. While our focus will be on poetry, participants are encouraged to write in any form, style or genre they prefer.
For the purposes of this workshop spirituality is defined as seeking a connection with something larger than ourselves. Everybody is welcome regardless of religious affiliation, beliefs, etc. The goal is about intentionally connecting with poetry as a life enriching practice. This is a creative writing workshop, and the focus will always be on the writing.
