SUMMARY:"The Stories We Share" Poetry Workshops
DESCRIPTION:Behind every social injustice story lies the possibility for change. In an era of media over-saturation\, divisiveness\, and declining humaneness\, a well-told story has the power to inspire and induce action. But how do we write such testimonies? How do we activate a jaded public? \nFree poetry workshops at the Samuel Bak Museum and Learning Center will help to address these questions. After a tour of the Museum’s current exhibition Flight & Hope\, participants will discuss the themes presented and explore how they would present their own experiences of trauma\, displacement\, hope\, and/or survival. \nRegistration for these workshops is required\, and spots are limited. For more information\, and to register\, visit https://events.unomaha.edu/event/stores_we_share \nNov. 9\, 5:30 p.m. Dr. Todd Robinson will focus on elegy and survival. \nNov. 16\, 5:30 p.m. Ms. Sharmila Seyyid will focus on writing and reading for recovery. \nThe poetry workshop session on Nov. 30 with Dr. Lisa Fay Coutley will focus on trauma and healing in the context of domestic violence and is by invitation only through the WCA and UNO Gender and Sexuality Resource Center. If you have any questions or would like to sign up for the event\, please contact SBMLC at unobakinfo@unomaha.edu. . November 30 at 5:30 PM (limited to 20 participants).

SUMMARY:Nebraska Poetry Society Workshop: Lisa Fay Coutley
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. \nOctober 26\, Lisa Fay Coutley “Infecting the Text: Letting Trauma Take its Necessary Shape” By now you’ve heard writers—especially poets and lyric essayists—suggest that you should let your content inform your form as often as you’ve heard them say show don’t tell\, though as it is with most things\, both are easier said than done. The former requires us to write from the body while letting go—a feat not easily mastered by any writer and complicated even more by difficult content. Often what we need most is permission and imaginative examples. This workshop will provide you with both. \nLISA FAY COUTLEY is the author of HOST (Wisconsin Poetry Series\, 2024)\, tether (Black Lawrence Press\, 2020)\, Errata (Southern Illinois University\, 2015)\, winner of the Crab Orchard Series in Poetry Open Competition\, In the Carnival of Breathing (BLP\, 2011)\, winner of the Black River Chapbook Competition\, Small Girl: Micromemoirs (Harbor Editions\, 2024)\, and she is the editor of In the Tempered Dark: Contemporary Poets Transcending Elegy (BLP\, 2023).
