Iowa City Poetry

In this workshop we will learn and discuss a variety of literary forms, techniques, and ephemera which can be fused into a single project. In creating a literary collage, we ask ourselves what objects, media, forms, or genres can best support or open up this piece? Make it unravel? There will be generative prompts, discussion, and some light reading from established collagers and multimedia writers (such as Andrea Rexilius, Claudia Rankine, Arthur Kayazakian, Jennifer Egan, Jennifer S. Cheng). This workshop is meant to help participants open our minds to the possibilities of the page. 

Writers of all levels and genres are welcome. Content will be appropriate starting a new project or continuing a work-in-progress.
