Kansas poets have long helped us fully see our home in the earth and sky, the tall grass prairies of the eastern part of our state and rock formations in the west. We’ll draw from many Kansas writers, including William Stafford, Denise Low, Harley Elliott, Jonathan Holden, Elizabeth Dodd, Brian Daldorph and Gordon Parks, investigating what these writers show us about where we live. We’ll also discuss and write about (in short, easy exercises) how sense of place informs how we live and who we are. (Please bring a journal or notebook.)
Date: Mondays, Nov. 16, 23 & 30
