Number four: Girl writes poem No yon (title on object) Seeing flowers (series title) Hanami (series title on object). Photograph. Britannica ImageQuest, Encyclopædia Britannica, Jan 19 2021. quest.eb.com/images/320_3861770. Accessed 15 Apr 2025. We will be experimenting with a poetic exercise, based on one created for the Poetry Foundation by Maggie Queeney, evoking descriptive language around color. Bring something with you in a color you want to spend some time with - our goal is to write a poem exploring your feelings and associations with color. We will also read a few colorful poems to get the creative juices flowing. For ages 18+. Registration is required. Limited to 10 participants.
