Writing Poetry with Metal

Writing Poetry with Metal

from $50.00

with Margaret Yapp
Wednesdays, September 10, 17, & 24, 6-8pm
IC Press Co-op (225 N. Gilbert)
sliding scale: $50-$200

In this workshop, participants will generate new poetry through generative and editing writing exercises, alongside and through learning how to set metal type! Editing gets exciting when you have to write a poem letter-by-letter. By the end, students will have set a new original poem in metal type, and will have the opportunity to print a small edition of letterpress broadsides. By writing with metal, poets will gain new and exciting editing skills that consider language as material, literally.

Open to ages 14+.

Registration deadline: Sept. 8

*PS1 workshops are pay-what-you-can thanks to support from Hills Bank and individual donors. $176 is the true cost of the workshop, and we encourage participants to select the cost that they can afford, or pay a little extra to support future sliding-scale fees.
