traveling poetry classes in july 2018 @ the kutztown folk festival & the schuylkill river in mont clare.

june 2018 traveling poetry class info.



next classes–

when: sunday, july 8 @ 1 p.m. & sunday, july 22 @ 10 a.m.

where:  

for july 8,  lock 60 along the schuylkill river is located at 400 tow path road, mont clare, pa 19453, and this road is just across from produce junction outside of phoenixville off of bridge street–follow the driveway all the way back until there is no where else to go 

for july 22, the kutztown folk festival located at 225 north whiteoak street, kutztown, pa 19530; i believe parking is on the opposite side of the entrance area and maybe even on the college campus nearby; parking is noted as free

optional themes of focus:

    sunday, july 8–the kutztown folk festival & its many vendors, happenings, etc.
    sunday, july 22–river poems (& charles bukowski poems, from may & june 2018)

at the folk festival, we'll explore and see what there is to see (bring notebooks to pen some observations!), and then we'll find a spot under shade of trees in the grass to talk poetry.

and we've had our last two river classes canceled due to rain, so hopefully the river and weather will be on the same page for july 22.

any topics of creative writing are welcome for sharing and workshopping during class by those who attend, but we have inspirational topics as prompt ideas, too. please bring a few copies to share with other students, if you can, for anything you write and want to practice reading as well as discussing. but just having your original copy to read from is okay, if that's easier for the writer.

cost: $20 per student, per class (we usually meet for 2 hours or more); for the class on july 8, since adult tickets cost $14.00 (and i have 6 coupons for $2.00 off), students are welcome to pay what they can for class on this date

if we ever have oddly inconvenient weather around the time of classes, i will update those who RSVPed to classes in advance to let them know if we are canceling, rescheduling, or relocating.

if you have any questions, feel free to reach out via poetrywithjenniferhetrick at yahoo dot com.

and if you know anyone who may be interested in our class, feel free to share this blog content onward.

also, if there is anyone who may want to join our class but lives in another area across berks, chester, and montgomery counties, we sometimes travel to a good variety of different places, so let us know, and we can see about planning classes closer to you.
