The Places That Build You

Always wanted to try your hand at poetry but never felt confident or were intimidated by thinking you had to be “good” at it to even try?
Join our narrative, free-verse, and imagery-focused growing poet, creative writer, and VSP team member, Audra Edwards, for a two-week poetry writing workshop.
As military and veteran spouses, we often live in a world of geographical and emotional upheaval, so it can be difficult to define our sense of “place” in the world and to express our identities. By offering you exposure to basic poetic categories and devices and then guiding you through prompts tailored to our community, you’ll be able to come away from this class with a better understanding of the places that have built and continue to build you into the person you are.
There is no need to have poetry experience to join this group! Ours is a welcoming, judgment-free community. Participants will be able to share drafts or finished pieces, (if they feel comfortable doing so), with fellow participants without worry of negative critique.
Before You Register…
Because we want to ensure the deepest quality of experience in our Veteran’s Spouse Project offerings, we put a maximum participant number in place for every event. We understand that schedules get packed and emergencies happen, but please make every effort to commit to showing up. Every “no show” takes a space away from a milspouse who could truly benefit from the community and healing present in our offerings.
