Poetry Workshop at New Dawn

Come out to the New Dawn Writers’ Group’s Poetry Workshop. Every third Tuesday from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm we will discuss poems and writing, write to prompts, give feedback, encourage one another, and discuss upcoming projects. It’s a friendly, pressure-free atmosphere at the New Dawn Arts Center in Ashburnham. The address is 84 Main Street, Ashburnham, MA. The workshop is being led by Fred Gerhard.

His poems appear in numerous magazines including Entropy Magazine, Friends Journal, Pif Magazine, POETiCA REViEW, and Sylvia Magazine. A 2023 winner of Poetry in the Pines, he is also an editor at Quabbin Quills and Smoky Quartz. For many years he led a poetry therapy group in Worcester at UMASS Memorial’s Community HealthLink.
