Sabrina Benaim Summer Camp

This year, our summer camp workshop is a little different!

We invite you to join Sabrina for Summer Camp: a rolling enrollment, virtual course designed to not only generate poems, but give time for poets to share their work!

Each class will meet once a week from June – September. Students can enroll for a month and then continue the workshop or not as their schedule allows.

About the workshop:

Let’s have some fun this summer exploring ourselves and the world around us through poetry. Each week will offer a stand-alone workshop that focuses on either a form, a feeling, or a classic summer camp activity. There will be lots of writing exercises, readings of poems, time for you to write, & time for you to share with the class.

How it works:

Purchase a single month for $100
or
subscribe on a rolling basis and only pay $90 a month
(subscription billed monthly)

Available:

Thursdays at 8 PM CT
– or –
Saturdays at 1 PM CT

📍 Online | 🕛 ALL SUMMER LONG
