Poets & Writers

Creativity lives in everyone—but many of us struggle to start or sustain a writing practice. You’ve got stories. Now it’s time to rev the engine of your creativity and tune into the ideas that may be slipping past you. This class will help you clarify your own creative process and learn how to capture the “aha” moments that spark ideas, reveal themes, and connect the dots in your writing. You’ll learn to recognize, capture, and transform those moments into vivid, compelling work across any genre: fiction, nonfiction, poetry, or hybrid.

Each session offers a dynamic, art-inspired prompt—drawing from forms like visual art and opera—designed to help you generate new material while discovering how you think creatively. You’ll also have guided time to write, reflect, and share lightly with the group. The focus is on discovery, not perfection. You’ll leave with tools to move past the blank page and with insight into your own nonlinear creative flow—skills that can supercharge both your writing and your life.

Whether you’re just starting out, returning to a project, or looking for new ways to unlock your voice, this course offers a supportive, energizing space for all levels. Writers, creativity-seekers, and anyone ready to reconnect with their imagination are welcome.
