The world is filled with sources of inspiration if we just slow down and connect with our senses. Deepening our attention to the natural world and to visual art can serve as entry points into writing poetry. In this experiential workshop, we will read poems that draw on nature and art and then try out some poetry writing exercises of our own. We will use the beautiful garden at the Oak Park Art League as well as the exhibit Poetry of Place: Landscape and Sacred Space as our prompts to write and share new poems on nature and art. All are welcome.
