It's a Bird... It's a Plane... It's a Poem! Demystifying the Poetic Form

Wednesday, April 136:00—7:45 PMCommunity RoomPleasant Valley Library1584 Main St, Pleasant Valley, NY, 12569

Come and join us on Wednesday, April 13th at 6pm for a lively, eye-opening workshop that proves no superpowers are needed to readily interpret and enjoy poetry's baffling design!

Do you walk in fear of poetry, yet feel somehow drawn to its charms and long to befriend it? If so, this workshop is for you! In this illuminating workshop, you’ll be invited to look beyond the “pageantry” of masterful works and discover the unifying human truths that kindle at every poem’s core. Vibrant, guided discussions, impassioned readings, video clips, and an interactive examination of poetic craft will empower you with the critical tools and adventurous spirit to enjoy those often intimidating lines of verse that secretly long to be your new best pal.

This program will be hosted by Danielle Gasparro, a Hudson River Valley-based wordsmith, songstress, published poet and teaching artist.

Registration is required.
