1 Day Workshop

Sunday, November 3 | 11 a.m.-1 p.m. p.m.

If you’ve ever tried to take a picture of yourself you know there’s a lot of different angles you can capture. Self-portrait poems delve into those aspects and facets of our identities, our history, and our understanding of “self.” They can be celebrations, inspections, and even sometimes critiques. In this class we’ll talk about two different approaches to writing self-portrait poems through reading and discussing examples and then we’ll start drafting some of our own.

Robin Gow is an award-winning poet and community educator. It grew up in Kutztown, Pennsylvania and lives with his partner Rain and their menagerie of animals on unceded Lenape land also called Allentown Pennsylvania. Fae is also the author of poetry collections as well as young-adult and middle-grade novels including Dear Mothman and A Million Quiet Revolutions, earning starred reviews from Publisher's Weekly, Kirkus, School Library Journal, and more.
