Guided Creative Retreat: Pocket Poetry

A retreat for taking some quiet moments to follow our creative curiosities and using materials you have on hand at home. Each guided retreat is akin to going on a solo retreat of your own while in the company of fellow creatives who are doing the same.

THEME: Pocket Poetry // A cozy virtual retreat for exploring the art of pocket-size writing. Explore micropoetry, play with found words, and tell a story in just a few lines. We’ll pull inspiration from visual imagery and wordplay + work small to alleviate the pressure of starting from scratch or having to fill a page.

We'll save a little time at the end for any who wish to share their makings or writings with the group, and retreat participants will also have access to a private forum hosted here on my website to continue the conversation and share in-progress or finished work for group feedback post-retreat.

You'll receive an email in the days prior setting the scene for our time together along with a list of suggested materials (applied to your medium) it'd be helpful to have on hand.

​

This workshop will take place in a live session through Zoom, which allows us to interact face-to-face in an online classroom setting through video, audio, and chat box. Download the Zoom app software to your preferred camera- and mic-enabled device + have stable internet service to participate in the live virtual workshop. Students will receive an email from me the day prior with a direct link and instructions on how to access the workshop the following day.
