Classes for Adults

Generative Poetry Workshop

In our 8-week poetry workshops, participants read and discuss the work of established poets. They also learn more about various topics of poetry and write their own poems in response to prompts and other activities. This is a lively community formed around the beauty of verse.

This program is currently on hiatus due to Covid-19. Please check back soon for details on future workshops.

Projects

On December 15th, 2018 Pacifica Writers' Workshop released The Bards of Bayview, an anthology of poems written by our workshop participants at the Bayview Retirement Community. To celebrate the fine poets in this workshop, we held an event filled with metaphors, rhymes, and fun! We have included pictures from the event below.

We would like to thank the Seattle Office of Arts & Culture for the generous smART ventures grant which made this anthology possible and the Bayview Retirement Community for their kind support. If you would like a copy of the anthology but didn't make it to the event, don't worry. You can now download a FREE digital version of the anthology.
