Scott Beal, from the Neutral Zone, is teaching a writing workshop for adults on Saturday, March 20th from 9am to 1pm, right here at the Downtown location of Sweetwaters!
The workshop is called “Unleash Your Outlandishness: Poems of Audacity and Weirdness.” Scott has designed it to be full of fun writing exercises to get people thinking and writing in unusual ways, to create surprising and wonderful poems! There may be tarot cards involved, and/or food coloring, and/or finger puppets. And more! No experience necessary. The workshop will be equally fun and productive for people who have never written a poem and for people who write poems regularly.
And though the workshop title says “poems”, really that means you can write in whatever form or style you’d like!
The cost of the workshop is $50 for a 4 hour session, AND it includes the cost of a delectable snack and drink from Sweetwaters, AND all proceeds go to support independent publishing and arts education for kids!
If you’d like to sign up for Scott’s workshop, please register here: http://www.dzancbooks.org/dzancday/
