Poets@Play Creative Writing Workshop with Jasmine Sufi

"Odes to Everyday Things"
Poetry can emerge from the smallest details, if we’re willing to notice them. That’s why we’re thrilled to have Jasmine Sufi lead a workshop to help us uncover the poetry hidden in the everyday moments that often go unnoticed.

A leading voice in the Bay Area slam poetry scene since 2009, Jasmine brings years of experience as both a performer and a mentor. She’s a former Berkeley Grand Slam Champion and has represented the Bay Area at the National Poetry Slam on multiple occasions. Her workshop will explore how great poets find inspiration in the seemingly mundane and guide us through exercises designed to sharpen our observation skills.

No RSVP required. Just show up at 1pm, ready to hone your performance skills.
