Join poet Kirun Kapur for an epistolary poem workshop drawing on the Herwitz collection of illustrated letters on view in “My Dear Davey and Chester …” Write your own poems as letters, considering the form as a vehicle for private meditation, public protest, humorous complaint, scholarly rumination and declarations of love. We’ll then consider some questions: Who are we writing to when we write a poem? What magic can pronouns perform on the page? How can writing a “letter” help us strengthen and define our voice?
