Poetry Writing Monthly Workshop

Please join Krystle Griffin at Philly Typewriter for her monthly two hour long poetry workshop. Open to all skill levels as it will include a variety of reviews, styles, prompts and group activity. The only thing required to bring is yourself as materials will be provided. However, feel free to bring any personal materials you want from home. The goal of this workshop is to both help understand poetry a little more and to have you leave inspired. Krystle would love for everyone to leave with material to go home and write with!

This monthly event serves as a way to keep learning, growing, working on your craft and providing feedback and community. Krystle is also always open to emails for feedback. Feel free to talk to her after the workshop to do so.
