Writing for Wellness: Poetry of the Everyday
2730 Historic Decatur Road, Barracks 16 #202, San Diego, 92106
Age Limit: 18+
Cost: $45 - $54
Find joy and wisdom in your voice, build confidence, and embrace your creativity in this beginner poetry workshop. Three-hour session with Annie Mascorro will explore the power of writing to understand the self and experiences, and to bring healing and wellness to our everyday lives.
The theme of this workshop will be what poet Randall Jarrell refers to as “the dailiness of life.” We will read two poems that celebrate quotidian aspects of the human experience. The class time will include warm-up writing exercises, discussion, and in-class writing. Writing as a transformative process will be emphasized through a supportive, nonjudgmental, and encouraging atmosphere.
