OPN’s winter/spring workshop series opens with a valentine’s special on Tuesday, February 11 when Suzanne Simons leads a session titled “Love & Sex & Poetry.” The workshop will be held at the Olympia Community Center, 222 Columbia St. NW from 7:00 p.m. until 8:30 p.m. Put on your writing hat and head down to “explore love poems of various kinds, from sweet to silly to sensuous.” Suzanne says that “We’ll consider poems by Khalil Gibran, Aimee Nezhukumatathil, Bob Hickok, and others, and try our hands at new ways to craft love poems using fresh language and form.” Come prepared to write. The event is FREE but donations are appreciated.
