“You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.”
— Eleanor Roosevelt
War. Climate crisis. Another Trump administration. Rather than commiserate, let’s find consolation in poetic expression. We’ll spend this President’s Day writing, prompted by poems and other forms from literary luminaries like Toni Morrison, Dorianne Laux, Nikki Giovani, and Ellen Bass.
Each Session is offered as part of the month-long event, Write Around the World
Write Around the World is an annual fundraiser to support the social justice programs offered by Amherst Writers & Artists (AWA), which invites beginner, emerging, and experienced writers into creative workshop spaces using the AWA Method. View the AWA calendar for individual writing sessions offered throughout the month of February!
