SUMMARY:Writing Workshop with Huascar Medina
DESCRIPTION:Kansas Poet Laureate Emeritus Huascar Medina will lead a free writing workshop (recommended for ages 16+) for anyone from seasoned to beginning writers. \nSpace is limited to 30 participants. Register to secure your spot: https://bit.ly/nwc-register. \nThis workshop is part of the Nebraska Writers Collective’s Visiting Writers Series. \nKansas Poet Laureate emeritus (2019-2022) and Academy of American Poets Laureate Fellow\, Huascar Medina has authored two books of poetry: Un Mango Grows in Kansas and How to Hang the Moon. He is the Lit editor for seveneightfive magazine\, a staff editor at South Broadway Press in Denver\, CO\, an op-ed writer at Kansas Reflector\, a founding member and former Chair of TopekaUnited.org\, the founder of wordssavelives.org\, and co-founder of latinidad.us. Huascar was born in Killeen\, TX\, and has lived artfully in Kansas for over two decades. He considers himself a special kind of Kansan—a helianthus. Huascar took roots in Kansas\, grew there\, and blossomed. As a second-generation immigrant living in the Heartland\, Huascar pushes the boundaries between identity and location\, focusing on cultural empathy\, social cohesion\, class structures\, first-generation trauma\, minority mental health\, and internalized diasporic longing and belonging. His work has appeared in the Flint Hills Review\, Gasconade Review\, Green Mountains Review\, Kansas Magazine\, Latino Book Review\, The New York Times\, and elsewhere.
