What to Expect from the Small Fabric Workshop

The Small Fabric: Micro Poetry and Prose workshop invites participants to explore creativity through short literary forms. Drawing inspiration from Emily Dickinson and Sappho, attendees will study example works, discuss craft, and take part in guided writing exercises. Each writer will have time to create and share original pieces within a supportive and collaborative atmosphere.
