2007 Seattle Poetry Festival Workshop: Poetry & the Visual Arts
Instructor Shin Yu Pai will lead students in guided writing exercises on using visual art images for literary inspiration. Students are encouraged to bring an image(s) that they would be interested in exploring through writing. Art postcards and catalogs will be used as prompts. Writing prompts may focus on topics including narrative voice, creating a setting, visual form, and pushing beyond simple description.
Max Number Participants: 15
