FOR IMMEDIATE
RELEASE
From the desk of Kathie Giorgio, Director, AllWriters' Workplace &
Workshop LLC:
WAUKESHA – Need inspiration for new poems? Look no
further than your favorite things! Paintings, photographs, pottery, music, and
other art forms offer the details and vision to provide just what you are
looking for. AllWriters’ Workplace & Workshop welcomes special guest
lecturer MARGARET ROZGA with her workshop, WRITING EKPHRASTIC
POEMS.
In this class, you’ll discuss the work of poets
who provide a range of ekphrastic models and look at images in a variety of
styles before drafting poems inspired by those images. You’ll consider how your
own drafts respond to the art and to those models, and where your work explores
productive new ground. The possibilities are endless! Though not required,
participants are encouraged to bring a piece of visual art or a recording of
music, to inspire themselves and others.
MARGARET ROZGA is a poet,
playwright and professor emerita of English at UW Waukesha. She has published
three books and was awarded a Creative and Performing Artists and Writers
Fellowship by the American Antiquarian Society. Her poems have appeared in
Nimrod, Burdock, New Verse News, Extract(s) and other journals. A Pushcart Prize
nominee, Dr. Rozga also enjoys creating in concert and her work has appeared in
many arenas, including a collaborative exhibit at the Ukrainian Museum of Modern
Art in Chicago.
Celebrity Saturdays are a great chance to broaden
your knowledge of what it takes to be successful and to learn from writers who
are already knee deep in an author’s life. Margaret Rozga’s workshop will be
held on Saturday, September 12th, 2015. This event runs from 9:00
a.m. to 2:00 p.m. and costs $85, which includes a lunch catered by Waukesha’s
own Café de Art.
