Poet in gold jacket
Join us on Sunday, May 9, 2021 from 2:00pm - 3:00pm Central for a generative workshop with featured poet Megan Fernandes.
Workshop Description: Experimental Writing
This generative writing workshop guides students through different forms and prompts of experimental writing in the 20th century beginning with the innovations of modernism and ending with feminist diasporic poetry. The goal of the class is to loosely define and explore the “playfulness” of experimentation and see its potentialities and possibilities as challenging narrative chronology, the coherence and singularity of the speaker, and the formula of a volta or catharsis.
Recommended for participants 16 years and above. ....
