Visual Poetry
Join us for an immersive experience where we combine the power of words and images to create a unique form of expression. In this workshop, we'll explore the intuitive method of black out or "found" visual poetry and experiment with patterns and designs to create stunning visual poetry pages.
As we delve into this creative process, we'll explore how this art form can connect both the left and right hemispheres of our brain. Through sharing and witnessing with our partners and circle, we'll gain insights and inspiration to further develop our unique visual poetry collections.
No prior experience is required, and all materials will be provided. Our workshop is led by a skilled facilitator who will guide you through the process and provide support along the way. Don't miss this opportunity to unlock your creativity and explore the power of visual poetry.

I. Serendipity Activity. What is means to find and be found. Presentation on Black Out Poetry.
