Do you enjoy writing, poetry, art and collage? Want to try something new?

Blackout poetry is the treasure hunt of poetry. You find words that catch your interest from a newspaper, book, or magazine and “blackout” the words you don’t want, creating your own poem.

Not only will you become a poet for the day, but also an artist as we take the poem and create a collage around it with a variety of mixed media. All materials will be provided.
