826LA@Hammer: No Lab Coats Required

  • This is a past program

Recommended for ages 8–13

Enter The Poetry Laboratory to experiment and interact with elements that engage all five senses: sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell. Participants will leave the workshop with a new poem and tools to jumpstart future writing! Led by Brandon Jordan Brown, a poet in Los Angeles who has received awards and fellowships from Orison BooksThe Sun, and PEN Center USA.
