Renaissance of Connection: A Writing Workshop at Beacon

2854 Larimer Street,Denver CO 80205

22 January, 2023

Description

This workshop is open to readers, writers, aspiring writers, and curious creatives. The purpose of our meeting is threefold: to read and discuss poetry as inspiration, to write in a communal setting, and to share our own writing (if desired). You do not have to be a professional writer, avid reader, or English major to join—whether you call yourself a writer or have only ever known a blank page, you are welcome and encouraged. The purpose of this group is to spark inspiration, steep in creative energy, and connect over the nuanced tenderness that writing brings to life. If you happen to get some words out of it, phenomenal. "I imagine poets stitching the world together. Long silver threads of text. Lines prompting reading, dreaming minds not to see every thing by itself and separate, but to see the seams often unseen in the dark expanses across space and time. This is, perhaps, a kind of sorcery. A power not to wield, but to hold. To practice holding." - Ellie A. Rogers It's free, but please sign up in advance! Please come prepared with whatever you like to write on, whether it be a notebook or a screen of some kind.
