SUMMARY:Nebraska Poetry Society Workshop: Aly Acevedo
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. \nDesire is one of the oldest subjects of human art\, not just romantic desire but the deep longing to be seen\, understood\, and connected. In this workshop\, we’ll explore how poetry gives voice to that yearning and how language becomes a bridge between isolation and intimacy. Through discussion and guided writing\, participants will consider what it means to reach for another person\, to be known\, and to find meaning through connection. \nAly Acevedo is a Puerto Rican and Vietnamese poet\, educator and speaker living in the Kansas City area. Her debut collection\, My Dear Cult Leader (Button Poetry\, 2026)\, examines the long shadows of a toxic relationship and the aftermath of sexual assault\, weaving personal history with persona poems that explore power\, trauma and reclamation. Her writing has been featured in Frontier Poetry\, TRASH MAG\, Ink and Marrow\, Anti-Heroin Chic and elsewhere. She lives with her husband\, two cats and dog.
