Intensive Workshops

Nov 15, 2025, 12:30 PM – 2:30 PMZoomIn this generative workshop, we’ll focus on dreamscapes, poems of the underworld within, that state where language and image meld as story gives way to song. We’ll also read and consider approaches to the landscape of memory, memory palaces, the housing of experience in language.
Nov 16, 2025, 12:00 PM – 4:00 PMZoomWe'll examine how poets throughout history have used their craft to process difficulty, create meaning, and offer solace to others. Through close reading and generative exercises, we'll practice finding language for complex emotions and experiences that might otherwise overwhelm us.

Multi-Week Workshops

Tue, Jan 06Jan 06, 2026, 6:00 PM – 8:00 PMZoomThis three-part (1/6, 1/13, 1/20) close reading workshop will examine a sample of poetry from early-, middle-, and late-career Glück, with an attention to her mastery of form, experiments in interiority, and her boundary-pushing work in the sequence or sustained poetry collection.
Wed, Jan 07Jan 07, 2026, 1:00 PM – 3:00 PMZoomEach class will dedicate an hour to reading and discussing exemplary poems, learning to read as writers, identifying prompts and what we would like to “steal” and how we would go about implementing our learnings in our own poems. The second hour will be dedicated to workshopping our own work.
