Genesis: the origin or coming into being of something

Calling all poets, poets-to-be, contemporaries & contemplatives, and admirers of the written word. Join us for a new poetry writing group that will meet on the first and third Wednesday of each month at 6 PM in the Library's Ames Room. Each meeting we will explore a new poem to read deeply together and parse out its images, references, poetic devices, and possible meanings to cultivate a deeper appreciation for poetry. Then we will take the opportunity to generate our own writing in response to a prompt rooted in the poem we just read. Your responses do not need to be in meter or rhyme (or even have line breaks!) and sharing what you've written is not required. You are welcome to simply come listen and enjoy the musicality of language as well.  

Registration is required to attend this program.

Contact us by phone during our operating hours at 860-536-7721. View the Library catalog on our website www.mysticnoanklibrary.org to place holds on materials or to sign up for programming.

Our operating hours for these services are from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, and 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM Thursday, Friday, and Saturday.
