Poetry As A Narrative: Telling A Story Through Verse - Youth Workshop

About this event

Poetry is often associated strictly with rhyming and meter, but its power extends far beyond those traditional structures. In this youth workshop, led by Colorado Poet Laureate Crisosto Apache, students will explore how poetry serves as a narrative medium, utilizing intentional language, vivid imagery, and prose-like elements to weave compelling stories. Writers will examine diverse examples of how poets use narration as a catalyst for storytelling, expanding the boundaries of the craft to create deeply resonant narrative works.
