Writing Workshop

Rain Date: Friday, August 22nd
From Newkirk Community Garden:
Join us for a writing workshop inspired by the Newkirk Community Garden!
In this workshop, you will be guided by several prompts to explore the garden with your senses, your imagination, and your care.
We will spend the first ten - fifteen minutes of the workshop introducing ourselves, leading into quiet contemplation and observation of the garden.
The next half hour will be devoted to writing; participants will choose to create a poem, an essay, a short story, a letter to a politician, or any form of writing to communicate the experience of the garden, linking it to community and a sense of place in the world.
The workshop will be guided by Sherri Machlin, garden member, author, and a composition instructor and art librarian for CUNY.
Journals and pens will be provided.
