From sonnet-curious to sonneteer in two hours!
In this workshop, we’ll explore a selection of sonnets from Elizabethan to
contemporary before participants dig in to the creative process of drafting
and crafting their own sonnets. We’ll provide exercises, prompts and
themes to help guide you in your process. All levels in all genres welcome,
from seasoned poets to first-time writers.
Two weeks after the workshop, workshop participants and the general public are
invited to compete in the Sonnet Slam on Saturday, June 28th at 5pm at the
Viroqua Shakespeare Festival for spirited literary delight and cash prizes!
(Food and music and a production Shakespeare’s The Tempest of will also
be available!).
