-----------------------------------

The next day, Sunday November 11th will be the first of 8 free Spoken Word/Poetry Workshops for teens and adults. The workshops will happen every Sunday from 3 to 5pm. Each workshop will give participants an opportunity to develop their unique voices as they create original pieces, and to learn about some of the greatest performance poets of our generation. The eight weeks of learning, sharing, and exploring will build towards a finale poetry night at 123. All participants will have a chance to perform at this event recognizing the talent and voices of the community.
