Join me at Chamblin’s Uptown Bookmine in downtown Jacksonville for an afternoon of poetry, community, and creativity!

This course’s focus will be on Ransom Note Poetry* and Memoir Poetry

A few words will be provided to get you started, but your masterpiece is left to you to bring to life!

We’ll also be focused on 6 word memoirs. These are great exercises for a variety of reasons, come discover which one works best for you!

Paired along with your ransom note poem or your six-word memoir, you’ll be encouraged to create a visual representation inspired by your work. Materials for this portion will be provided.

Langston Hughes will be our literary focus for this class. You can find a link below with more information of how Hughes’s contribution inspired some of the most famous moments in history.
