SUMMARY:Nebraska Poetry Society Workshop: Alison Lubar
DESCRIPTION:The Nebraska Poetry Society is offering monthly Saturday morning online poetry workshops. Registration is required\, and registration information may be found on the Nebraska Poetry Society webpage. Free with annual membership; nominal fee for non-members. Students\, minors and others for whom the registration fee is prohibitive may request a free membership. \nAlthough one of the most famous writers of the sonnet was Shakespeare\, the form has existed since the 13th century. In this history-meets-poetry workshop\, participants will explore classic and contemporary sonnets\, from poets like Petrarch\, Edna St. Vincent Millay\, Terrance Hayes\, and Nicole Tallman. We’ll look at the way that poets use the sonnet form to address the issues of their time and how this “little song” has evolved over its long existence. Participants will walk away with a broad understanding of the Sonnet\, the way its conventions both draw on and continually inspire other forms of poetry\, and ways to try writing their own “little songs.”​ \nAlison Lubar is a queer biracial Nikkei poet and educator who teaches literature to teenagers\, writing to adults\, and yoga to all ages. They’re the author of two full-length poetry books\, The Other Tree\, winner of Harbor Editions’ 2023 Laureate Prize\, and METAMOURPHOSIS (fifth wheel press\, 2024)\, four chapbooks\, Philosophers Know Nothing About Love (Thirty West\, 2022)\, queer feast (Bottlecap Press\, 2022)\, sweet euphemism (Mouthfeel Press\, 2023)\, and It Skips a Generation (Stanchion\, 2023)\, and a forthcoming microchap\, American Kintsugi (Bull City Press\, 2026). Alison is also a board member for Philadelphia’s Blue Stoop.
