In this introductory workshop to the foundations of poetry, we'll learn how poetry is a body of creative expression made up of certain elements. We’ll explore these basic elements at length through figurative language, repetition, rhythm & rhyme, lines, stanzas & lineation. We’ll then see these elements in action through reading one of Dr. Maya Angelou's most famous poems "Still I Rise” We’ll deepen the learning of figurative language by engaging the senses through a writing prompt. There will also be time for sharing and discussing our work.

Led by Pamela "Jaz" Banks
