I’m excited to announce that I’ll be teaching an 8-week poetry writing workshop called “Place and Poetic Practice” starting October 2, 2019 at The Downtown Writer’s Center in sunny Syracuse, NY.

Place and Poetic Practice with Christopher Citro. Wednesdays, 6:00-8:00. 8 weeks, starting October 2. In this workshop we’ll discuss poetry that incorporates a sense of place to enchant and challenge the reader. We’ll use prompts and exercises drawn from our readings to inspire new writing. Required text: The Poem’s Country: Place & Poetic Practice, edited by Shara Lessley and Bruce Snider (Pleiades Press, 2018).

Registration is inexpensive and open to the public. To learn more about The Downtown Writer’s Center, download the winter class schedule, and register for this workshop, visit the Center’s website HERE. Feel free to share with anyone who might be interested!
