Poetry heals: Writing workshop for healthcare workers
The workshop is intended to inspire healing through poetry.
In celebration of National Poetry Month, the Stokes Center for Creative Writing at the University of South Alabama is offering a free writing class for COVID-19 healthcare workers. This interactive writing class will offer prompts, poems and writing time during the afternoon session. This workshop is intended to inspire healing through poetry.
“For this year’s National Poetry Month, we wanted to give back to all the healthcare workers who have sacrificed so much for us,” said Charlotte Pence, assistant professor of creative writing and director of the Stokes Center for Creative Writing. “As writers, we know how healing it can be to write down our experiences and share it with others.”
The class will be held over Zoom on Saturday, April 24, from 2-3:30 p.m. Register if you are a healthcare worker (all roles and disciplines) by April 10. Registration is limited.
