Poetry workshops

Cape May MAC (Museums+Arts+Culture) announces an exciting new partnership with Cape May’s inaugural Poet Laureate Sylvia Baer. Baer will host poetry workshops on July 10, 17, 24 and 31 with the themes Water, Sky, Sand and Family.

Open to everyone with an interest in poetry regardless of experience, these workshops will include a craft discussion, writing prompts, the opportunity to share work if desired, light refreshments and lively conversation. Each workshop will be different, so repeat participants will discover something new each week. They will emerge with a new perspective on the craft of poetry, and hopefully one or two poems of their own.

Dr. Sylvia Baer, a professor of literature for 51 years, is the author of the memoir “Learning Life,” and a playwright, memoirist, writer of scholarly works, translator of Spanish poetry (into English), and a fellow at Yale University.
