Storytelling Workshop Poetry

What’s Happening?

Register for this class here! 

Get your creative juices flowing for National Poetry Month 2024 with Typewriter Rodeo! Whether you’re a poet or not, this workshop has something for everyone, including a room full of typewriters to play with. Clacking away on those keys with no way to correct your mistakes is freeing and just darn fun! In this one-day, fast-paced workshop, you’ll write between 12 to 21 short poems in less than 2 hours. Yes, really! And, along the way, discover a bit more about the creative voice that’s been waiting inside you, patiently, to peek out.

Workshop Dates: Saturday, March 30, 2024 10am-12pm CST, in person at Gemini Ink

Cost: Nonmember: $115; Member: $100; Student/Educator/Mil $75

EARN CPE’S * SCHOLARSHIPS AVAILABLE

Sean Petrie & Rebecca Bendheim are part of the nationally-renowned Typewriter Rodeo, where they’ve written thousands of poems for strangers on the spot, and do weekly radio poems for NPR. Both have MFAs in Writing for Children from Vermont College of Fine Arts, are writing teachers (Sean at UT, Rebecca at Trinity Episcopal School), and authors. Sean’s books include Typewriter Rodeo, the award-winning Pet Poems (also not just pets), and the Jett Ryder series for kids. Rebecca is represented by Patricia Nelson and has multiple books in the works.
