Gather: Cathartic Poetry

Linda offers workshops for writers and non-writers alike through Gather. Her Cathartic Poetry Workshop focuses on getting us out of our usual patterns of thinking and remembering, approaching writing through prompts that encourage us to uncover and explore in a less direct, no-pressure way. She’s particularly interested in the poetry that arises from our individual and communal vernaculars, and she helps students find the poetry that’s already there—in their own everyday cadences and voices.

Join Linda’s next Cathartic Poetry Gather, or contact Linda to discuss bespoke team building workshops.
