Aracelis Girmay | what Else we sound

How might language help us to experience, reach, or be reached by the Else we carry, especially across time? In this two-hour generative writing workshop, we will make experiments in reading, language, writing, and listening. Participants are asked to please bring a photocopy of a meaningful, mysterious, potent, resonant photo from your personal album or archive. Please make sure it is a photocopy because you will bend/manipulate the image. Participants are encouraged to attend the workshop and return later in the evening for the poetry reading. If you are unable to join us in-person for the poetry reading but would like to attend virtually, please indicate this on the RSVP form and a Zoom link will be provided to you 24 hours prior to the event. The writing workshop will be closed to in-person attendees.
