A poetry workshop & open mic for young adults and teens.
During these sessions, we’ll have a poetry writing workshop for the first half hour. After that, participants will present their poetry in an open-mic fashion.
If anyone wishes to present another art form, we’d love that, too!
The workshop will take place in two locations:
First Tuesdays at Studio Theater in Exile at Hudson Valley MOCA (1701 Main St., Peekskill, NY 10566)
From: 6:30 PM – 8:00 PM
&
Third Sundays at Bethany Arts Center (40 Somerstown Rd., Ossining, NY 10562)
From: 3:00 PM – 4:30 PM
Each event will start with a poetry workshop for youth and young adults; then, we will continue with the Open Mic. To sign up, email arts@necspace.org
More Info
•Though workshop writing prompts will vary each month, the overarching theme will center around matters of society and NECS core values: creativity, joy, nobility, empathy, justice and service.
•Since we are also including youth to participate, we ask that participants keep their art “clean”.
•Light snacks/refreshments will be available for participants.
•Participants are strongly encouraged to email arts@necspace.org before attending. This gives us a good idea of the number of materials/snacks we’ll need.
