FULLY BOOKED – Poetry of Place – A workshop with Jodie Hollander

FULLY BOOKED – this event is fully booked

Jodie Hollander’s workshop will focus on the significance of place in poetry. Place may be defined as a geographical location, an internal state, or perhaps a poetic meeting of the two. Using the library’s unique and extraordinary surroundings as an inspiration, this workshop will lead students through a series of writing prompts to ultimately create an original draft of a poem. In addition, the class will centre around how to structure and develop poems and the creative process that is involved.

Jodie’s work has appeared in numerous poetry journals. Her debut full-length collection, My Dark Horses, was published with Liverpool University Press & Oxford University Press. Her second collection, Nocturne, will be published in Spring 2023. She is the recipient of a MacDowell fellowship and a Fulbright fellowship in South Africa.
