Celebrate National Poetry Month with The Muse’s Teaching Artists
April is National Poetry Month, a time to honor the power of words and the voices that bring them to life. At The Muse Writers Center, we believe poetry is an experience, a craft, and a conversation.
Join us for the Muse Teacher Poetry Showcase, an evening featuring the incredible teaching artists who lead our poetry workshops. Each instructor will share selections of their original work, offering a glimpse into their creative process and the unique perspectives they bring to their classes.
