Black Out Poetry
/Please join us for this very fun creative poetry event! Blackout poetry is when you take a written piece of text from a book, newspaper, or magazine and redact words, in order to come up with your very own poetry! It combines art with language and is perfect for students who have just started learning about poetry, struggle with poetry, or would like to explore a new side of poetry by writing with an artistic twist!
This event is aimed at grades 3-12 and will explore sensory language, creative writing, handwriting, spelling, and motor skills to create fun poetry! Students will take home their poem project to show parents when finished! This will be a project to hang on the fridge - for sure! This event is offered for 3-12 grade students with an interest in art, poetry, writing, and creativity!
For students attending in-person, please know that materials will be provided but if you would like specific articles, materials, or art supplies, please bring them along.
For students attending online, please have a magazine, newspaper, or other pieces of writing that can be marked on, markers, and your imagination!
