National Poetry Month: Write Night

Tuesday, April 2, 2024
6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
Business and Community Center

Curious about poetry? Already know that you enjoy it? Ever wanted to try writing your own poems?

In celebration of National Poetry Month, local author Christy Prahl will discuss poetry in general as well as her own work. She'll then guide participants through a few hands-on methods to write poems of their own. All levels of writers, from the experienced to the "I'm just curious," are welcome in this session.

We Are Reckless, Prahl's recent book, was named a 2023 finalist for the Chicago Reader's Best New Poetry Collection. The book will be available for purchase.

This workshop is partially sponsored by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council.

Online registration is closed.
