Poetry session in ROM

Here’s an interesting experience for all of you poets out there; Inkslingers is offering Rhymes at the ROM, a day of poetry workshopping held at Ontario’s premier museum on Sept. 21.

To quote from their site: The Royal Ontario Museum is a gorgeous storehouse of anthropological, geological, and paleontological information and artefacts…Poets will be given prompts and exercises and encouragement throughout the day designed to help you engage with the bones of your material and your craft.

At the end of the day, workshop members will head to a local restaurant for an optional reading inspired by their day at the museum.

The workshop is planned for Sat. Sept 21, runs 10:30 a.m. — 4:30 p.m.  Cost for the day is $70 and includes museum entry fee, all workshop activities and a free drink at the reading afterward. To register, go to their site at:  http://inkslingers.ca/inkslingers/rhymes-at-the-rom/?fb_source=pubv1

Inkslingers is the brainchild of James Dewar and Susan Reynolds. Both are published authors who offer regular writing workshops through their Inkslingers business.
