Then you'll be led through a variety of writing activities inspired by the museum's beautiful paintings, ultimately leading to a draft of an original poem. Students will discuss poetic techniques such as meter, the use of vivid imagery, the importance of sonics, how to shape a poetic line as well as techniques for drafting and revision.
