Poetry as Democracy: A Hands-On Workshop

This hands-on poetry workshop will be structured as a facilitated space for reflection and guided artistic practice. Participants will be invited to reflect on what they have heard and felt through the course of the conference so far, and as a group, we will gather words that surfaced in other talks and panels as the basis of the reflection. Participants will respond to prompts and have time to write and draw individually and collaboratively.

Participants will be given the opportunity to have the poems they produce in the workshop published in a limited-run chapbook produced by Inanna and sold on the Inanna website and in local Toronto bookstores.
