What happens when we name it all — every ache, every joy, every version of ourselves? In this immersive, two-hour workshop with award-winning poet Kelly Grace Thomas, we’ll turn the simple act of listing into a powerful poetic engine for truth-telling and transformation.

​Through dynamic exercises and guided exploration, you’ll learn how to build poems that breathe, surprise, and reveal. Whether you’re seeking a breakthrough in your current work or a way to reignite your voice, this session will help you find depth and resonance through accumulation.

​You’ll leave with tools to:

• ​Use repetition and rhythm to heighten emotional impact

• ​Generate new ideas through iteration and expansion

• ​Build tension and texture by layering language

• ​Overcome creative blocks by writing your way through them

​Come make a list. Come make a poem. Come make meaning.
