Descripció:

In the Idyllwild Arts tradition--which holds that the diversity of participants enriches the learning experience for all--workshops are open to anyone with a serious interest in writing poetry, from beginners to published poets. The workshop faculty is comprised of award-winning poets who are also devoted teachers, and whose commitment is to creating a workshop environment that encourages creative risk-taking, discipline and attention to craft, and the building of a community of writers-with those more experienced writers taking a leadership role, and the newer writers offering the freshness of their perspective on the creative process.

Workshop activities focus on helping participants generate new work and explore a wide range of literary styles and techniques, but also include close-critique of drafts and revisions. The workshops, held each morning from 9 am. to 12 noon, are limited to a maximum of 10 participants each, ensuring that each participant receives individual attention and is able to work at his or her own level. Participants also have the opportunity to interact with poet-instructors and distinguished visiting poets during afternoon sessions and evening readings. In addition, “open mic” time is reserved for workshop participants two out of three evenings each session, and those enrolling in both three-day sessions will also have the opportunity to gather for an informal workshop/reading during the one-day break.
