Part of The Poetry Society of New York's Weekly Virtual Workshop Series.

Join us for an inspiring generative poetry workshop with the talented poet Patrycja Humienik! This workshop will delve into the theme of devotion, exploring its many dimensions as both an anchor and a spark for creativity. Together, we'll examine poems by renowned poets such as Aracelis Girmay, Audre Lorde, and Jean Valentine, among others. Following our discussions, we'll engage in writing prompts and experiments designed to ignite your own poetic voice.

Patrycja welcomes diverse interpretations of devotion, making this workshop a rich and inclusive experience for all participants.
