Pure Imagination: A Poetry Thoughtshop Drawing on One of Our Greatest Gifts
The effort of the imagination is to turn the boundary into a horizon because there is no end point for you. The boundary says, Here and no further. The horizon says, Welcome.
—Barry Lopez, Horizons (short film by Jeremy Seifert)
How do we envision a better world for ourselves, for others? How do we dream into the world we most want to inhabit? How can imagination enrich not only our creative practice but our lives? What might happen if we let ourselves think new thoughts and form new ideas beyond what is right in front of us … Let’s find out together. In this one-hour webinar-style thoughtshop, join poet Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer as she reads and talks about poems that blossom out of the real and welcome us into the realm of infinite possibility. She will then offer invitations for you to do your own writing later. There will be time for questions and responses. After the event, all who register will receive a link to the recording, links to the poems she reads, plus the writing invitations.
