Take an “Excavation Vacation”



Are you feeling a little cooped up, hemmed in, boxed up? Maybe what you need is a vacation.

Missouri Poet Laureate Karen Craigo invites you to take an “Excavation Vacation” 1-3 p.m. Sunday, June 14.

Join other poets from Missouri and the wider world as we talk poetry, try some prompts, and even meditate our way into deeper material for our writing. Poets of all ability levels are welcome to join us for a small escape that we hope will lead to exciting new work. The goal is to dig deep for ideas that can move us out of our suddenly too-small spaces and into the limitless realm of the imagination.

The Missouri Poet Laureate is supported by the Missouri Arts Council, and this is a free event. Non-Missourians who wish to participate are welcome, but we invite you to make a donation of any size to any Missouri arts organization, like the Springfield Art Museum, https://tinyurl.com/ycm338hv, to show your support. (We operate on the honor system, but we would love to know which organization you’re supporting!)

Write to Karen at campmopo@gmail.com to reserve a spot for this Zoom-based session. The deadline to let her know is June 13, but sooner is better.
