The 2023 Massachusetts Poetry Festival

Adding an event to your sched does not guarantee you a spot in a workshop. Capacity for workshop spaces is 30 people. We recommend arriving as early as possible. In the case a workshop is filled to capacity, please check out some of our other great Festival programming.

Recommended for ages 12 and up. Perfect for an intergenerational workshop. Participants use random words salvaged from various sources to create associations, then write a poem. The words on salvaged paper will be incorporated (recycled) into their art project, which is a five page, accordion fold-out book. All participants will take home a finished product. This is an engaging, challenging project which offers participants a chance to share their creativity and imagination
