SUMMARY:Travel Through Metaphor
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, December 13\, 20256:00–8:00 pm ET\n\n\n\nAmplify your poetic curiosities with fresh takes on figurative language. \n\n\n\nMany writers rely to some degree on figurative language\, which offers the pitfall of cliché or the opportunity for imaginative travel. Strong use of metaphor helps us move away from what we think we know and come closer to a new understanding of what is possible. In this generative workshop\, we will develop fresh approaches to metaphor and other figures of speech. You can expect to leave the workshop with tools for developing your own metaphorical and descriptive power. The workshop is open to writers of all levels and genres\, but some basic experience with poetry writing is recommended.  \n\n\n\nEmail sarahwolfsonwriter@gmail.com to reserve your spot in advance. Space is limited.  \n\n\n\nSarah Wolfson is an award-winning poet and teaching artist. Her collection A Common Name for Everything won the 2020 A.M. Klein Prize for Poetry. Her poems have appeared in literary journals such as The Walrus\, The Fiddlehead\, Geist\, CV2\, Arc\, TriQuarterly\, and The Yale Review. She has taught poetry writing in a variety of contexts to people of all ages\, backgrounds\, and experience levels.
