Image and ‘Imag’ination
J10-P02
1 Saturday, 10 a.m.-12 p.m.
August 21
$39 W&B members / $43 general public
Instructor: Karen Lee Lewis
How can the art of photography help us explore image making and ‘imag’ination in poetry? In this workshop we will explore imagery beyond visual reproduction. How can we create stronger images in our work? What elements of art making are shared between poetry and photography? Bring a photograph to the workshop that you’d like to write to, or choose one that inspires you from photographs the instructor will bring.
