Poetry Workshop for Teens at the Library

Well, I'm not a teenager, but I love poetry, and I remember really getting into it as a teenager. I got a notice about this and just thought I'd post it incase anyone it applies to might stumble in here. There is an amazing Library system there with some interesting events and workshops for everyone to check out.

"Gina Ferrara, a local poet and teacher, will be conducting a poetry workshop at the Latter Branch on Saturday, October 10, for 7th - 12th graders. The workshop will be from 1:00 - 3:00 PM. Anyone interested in attending the workshop needs to register by calling (504) 596-2625 and asking for Missy, Shelley, or Kate.

New Orleans Public Library is collaborating with Audubon Zoo to incorporate poetry installations throughout the zoo. This project is called "The Language of Conservation" and is made possible through a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services. The poetry workshops are designed to support "The Language of Conservation."
