NBPF: Holy Relics of the Game—Artifact, Myth and Legend
May 8 @ 9:30 am – 11:00 am
National Baseball Poetry Festival Two Free Generative Workshops: Holy Relics of the Game—Artifact, Myth and Legend Facilitated by Lifetime Beat Poet Laureate Tommy Twilite.
Participants are invited to consider some baseball relics as inspiration to conjure up a poem. Twilite will bring some very interesting pieces, and participants may bring something of their own: a special old glove or cap, maybe a scorecard, ticket stub, etc. to use as inspiration for discussion and writing.
