The 2025 workshops will be taught by Lance Newman and meet in person on Westminster's campus from 5:30–8:20 p.m. (MT) on Tuesdays, January 21 to May 9, 2025.
To be considered for this free course, please submit 3 poems in 1 document with contact information on the poems by December 15. Preference will be given to community members in and around Salt Lake City, Utah. Participants will be notified by the end of the year.
