Is Maya Angelou your spirit animal? Does the mere mention of “O Captain! My Captain!” make you weak in the knees? Is the written word absolutely and totally your jam? Then get yourself to the Student Editing Workshop With Don Share, hosted by the fine people of O, Miami. Share is best known as the editor of Poetry magazine, a Chicago-based literary journal where T.S. Eliot and Marianne Moore got their start. A wordsmith of the highest caliber, Share has also written his fair share of poetry books, including Squandermania, Union, and Wishbone. Open to teens interested in learning from a master of poetry, the two-hour workshop will feature Share providing one-on-one instruction to a small class of emerging writers. Step up your vocab this Friday at Young Arts (2100 Biscayne Blvd., Miami). Class begins at 6:30 p.m., and entrance is free. Space is limited, and RSVP is required. Call 305-642-3132 or visit omiami.org.
Fri., April 18, 6:30 p.m., 2014
