South Fork Natural History Museum (SoFo)- Workshop: Writing a Nature Poem For Adults and Teenagers, 16 and Older

Participants must call (631) 537-9735 for reservations and information about meeting place

Workshop Leader: George Held, South Fork Natural History Museum (SoFo) Board of Directors

 George Held, a widely published poet and the author of Culling: New and Selected Nature Poems (2013), will explore the possibilities for writing a nature poem and provide successful models for discussion. The SoFo Museum’s displays and outdoor surroundings, as well as a participant’s experience with plants and animals, offer the raw materials for writing a nature poem, and George will suggest possible forms, from haiku to free verse, for doing so. Come prepared to write.

*Reservations are required for all walks, workshops, and programs*

There is no charge for SoFo Members (unless otherwise stated); Non-members $7 per adult; $5 per child

Fees include admission to the museum on the day of the program
