PROGRAM FULLY BOOKED - WAIT LIST ONLY: Culture and Poetics Workshop 1.2: Writing as an Outsider

PROGRAM FULLY BOOKED - WAIT LIST ONLY

Whether by race, class, culture, gender, ableism, or other categories, many people have experienced being outsiders. Outsiders make excellent observers, and we can use our experience of looking at society to create poems that interrogate what is often seen as “normal” or “correct” simply because it is the majority experience. Taking from our lives and unique experiences we will celebrate the ways in which we belong to ourselves.

Participants can attend this workshop on its own or with the others in its series. Registration required, spaces are limited. To register call 416-393-7085 or email trllanglit@tpl.ca .

This program is presented by Sarah Yi-Mei Tsiang, TPL’s Spring 2024 Writer in Residence whose focus is Poetry for an Adult Audience. Learn more about TPL's Writer in Residence program, including upcoming programs and one-on-one consultation sessions.
