This workshop was held live on December 25, with the aim of transforming a day that can sometimes be lonely or restless for Jewish writers into one rich with meaning, self-reflection, and productive thinking and writing. The session is for poets of all traditions who would like to work with Jewish themes. Participants will discuss craft while analyzing inspiring poems written by a range of Jewish poets—from ancient to contemporary times—and generative prompts will be given to inspire some new poems of your own.
