A Nonexistent Himalayan Expedition: The Poetry of Place (Ibex Studios' Poetry Workshop)

So many of us feel connected to a specific physical place. In this poetry workshop, we'll explore poets such as Szymborska, Wendell Berry, and Neruda, who delve into the idea of place and belonging. Poetry allows us to connect a birch tree with a first kiss and a particular blue with never learning French. Through experiential writing exercises, we'll tap into the physical spaces that make up our emotional terrain. Come prepared to fly over grassy plains and rest on top of heathered peaks. Beginners encouraged and welcome. Seasoned poets, come learn a few new tricks.
