Everyone’s voice is different. We want to hear yours.
This winter/spring, come together with other teens (ages 13 to 18) from across Atlantic City at a Dodge Poetry workshop designed to showcase your words and ideas. Poets from the community will be on hand to offer prompts, suggestions and ideas.

But the focus is on you: What frustrates you? Where do you find joy? What does this city and this country look like from your unique, powerful perspective?

We believe poetry can be found in books, but also in hip hop, at protests and parties, in the clip of a song playing from the window of a passing car. Poetry is an oral tradition.
So be a part of the conversation. Join us to write your own verses, and then (if you choose) speak them out loud at the open mic that ends every session.

Workshops will be co-taught by experienced poets Attorious Renee and Jacob Camacho.

Workshops are FREE and will be held in person at the Noyes Arts Garage. Snacks provided. Parking will be validated.
