“Write, Honor, and Celebrate: A ‘Golden Shovel’ Poetry Workshop” is designed to provide space and time to explore and use the “Golden Shovel” form to write a poem that honors and celebrates someone or something. Whether honoring and celebrating a loved one, a favorite place, a favorite food, a pet, some aspect of those, or something else entirely, this workshop will be a space to embrace the care and fortitude with which you hold that someone or something.
