In this class, we'll venture into a variety of poetic forms, explore inventive imagery, and experiment with figurative language, learning from practicing the craft, reading established poets, and sharing out work with each other (if we want to!). This course is suitable for all levels - from beginning writers, to those who've already written poems of their own!

Students can write on a computer, or can bring a notebook and pen or pencil to write with.

Emily Duggan is a practicing poet, performer, and educator raised in Melrose and currently living in Jamaica Plain.
