Youth Poetry Workshop: Winooski Library & Bianca Stone

Past event
Apr 16, 2021, 3 to 4:30 PM

National Poetry Month programming continues with our Youth Poetry Workshop featuring Bianca Stone!

Are you a Winooski youth (or know someone who is) and interested in poetry, creative writing, comics, and/or curious to learn more? In partnership with the Sundog Poetry Center, we've developed an amazing workshop designed for aspiring youth poets and writers!

Participants will be introduced to Bianca's poetry and, via the use of writing prompts, have the opportunity to create and share their own work in a supportive and welcoming space. All you need is an interest or curiosity about writing and poetry!

Free for youth ages 12 - 18
To register, please call or email Nate Eddy, Library Director: 802 655 6424 / neddy@winooskivt.gov
This is a virtual program provided via Zoom.
A special Zoom invite link will be sent to you directly.
