“Stories from the Curb” Intro to Urban Poetry: Every city..every block..every individual, holds a million unspoken truths. This creative writing poetry workshop transforms the daily rhythm, grit, and unique beauty of urban life into powerful poetry pieces with a voice.
with Alana

“Stories from the Curb” Intro to Urban Poetry

In this class, we strip away from traditional verse and choose to focus on the real, and raw emotion that comes from having a space to speak freely through expressive and engaging writing prompts, contemporary urban spoken word readings and poems, as well as, feedback sessions where we are able to have collaborative discussions.

We will explore different artists to dissect lyricism, and gather ideas. We will cover “The Art of Observation”, which will exercise the eyes to spot poetic details, as well as, train the mind to identify comparisons and describe them in the form of metaphors, similes, and cultivating personal writing styles. As an untraditional creative writer and artist myself, I find it hard at times to discover creative spaces that aren’t extremely regulated, and will actually allow you to say what you feel without restrictions. So, I would like to create a space for like-minded individuals to engage and be heard.

Meet your instructor, Alana:

Hello 👋🏽 My name is Lana, and I have been participating in creative writing and expression for 8+ years. I graduated with a bachelors degree in Fine Arts in 2018, and have always maintained a strong passion for creativity, and art of all genres and styles! My style of work is versatile from being in the art field for quite a while, however, I can never help but to revert back to that real and raw material that made me fall in love with art to start with. I’d love to get to know you all a lot more, and be able to experience a peek inside your vibrant and individualistic minds through different vocalized expressions and writing prompts!
