Poetry bridges imagination and language, enabling us to discover new possibilities within ourselves and the world. As a transformative art form, poems begin with the simple act of noticing, then spark our curiosity and wonder. Becoming better readers of poetry helps us understand ourselves and others in more meaningful ways.
Through hands-on exercises, analysis, and discussions, explore how contemporary poems reflect and amplify who we are and who we hope to be. Key topics include imagery, sound, word choice, form, and metaphor.
Poetry After Dark will be led by Charmaine Cadeau, poet and Associate Professor of English at High Point University.
