Poetry Writing Workshop with Ron Koertge

Join South Pasadena Poet Laureate Ron Koertge for an engaging and playful poetry workshop exploring the elegant Korean form known as sijo. With just three lines and a total of 45 syllables, sijo offers a compact yet expressive structure that invites both precision and surprise. Ron will guide participants through the form’s unique rhythm and spirit, then facilitate a hands-on writing exercise to help you craft your own poems. Whether you’re new to poetry or a seasoned writer, all experience levels are welcome, adults only. This workshop is a chance to experiment, connect, and discover how much can be said in just a few lines.
