Please join us on Friday, February 19 from 2 p.m. – 4 p.m. for a Cinquain and Fold-Out Book Workshop with local artist, Yetti Frenkel. The cinquain is a simple, five line poetry form that can be edited and rewritten to produce a truly extraordinary work. In this two hour workshop, participants compose a poem, then illustrate their poem in a five page accordion fold book. Topics covered will include editing and effective language, using simile and metaphor as inspiration for poems, and illustration concepts for effective visual communication.

For ages 12 and up. Please call Youth Services to register.
