A High School Poetry Workshop designed by Marin County Poet Laureate Rebecca Foust

The workshop is open to all students ages 15 – 19. Bring 10 copies of one one-page original poem to each session or come early enough to print out copies at the library before class. The workshops will be conducted by trained mentors who will open each session with  a presentation and discussion of an element of poetic craft as exemplified in both a poem from the traditional canon and a contemporary poem. The latter part of each session will be devoted to an MFA-style workshop examination and discussion of student poems.
