Indigenous Community Poetry Workshop: Poeticizing Indigenous Landscapes

Location: Zoom
Date: Sep 12, 2023
Time: 6:00 - 8:00 pm

Poetry in Public offers workshops celebrating poetry and guiding you on a journey toward writing a poem that may be featured on King County public transit in 2024.

Poeticizing Indigenous Landscapes fosters writing around the theme of place and homelands. Participants will explore how landforms—in nature and in memory—shape the work of contemporary Indigenous writers. They will also map their own landforms and memory fragments to produce new work that conceptualizes Poetry in Public’s 2023-2025 theme: Places of Landing.

Poetry in Public Poet Planner Laura Da’ and Indigenous Community Liaison D.A. Navoti will lead the facilitation of this workshop, primarily in English. D.A. Navoti is a multidisciplinary storyteller, composer, and writer.

Workshops are free and open to the public; please register in advance at the link below.
