Poetry Out Loud!

Five-Week Poetry Writing & Performance Workshop Course for Middle and High School Students

3-5 p.m. every Tuesday March 6th through April 3rd

If your poem is worth writing down, it’s worth sharing with others.  Workshop includes tips for writing poems that work well as performance pieces as well as tricks for editing and memorizing poems you can present proudly in your unique voice.  The last class includes a class performance.  Performing poetry is easier and way, way more fun than you think!

Call Esther at the library for more information or to register.
