Join us on October 25th, 2026, at 7 pm EDT for “Poetry Brew,” a workshop where we will brew up some poetry of the season.

This 1.5-hour workshop will explore the captivating world of All Hallows' Eve, its rich history, and the feelings this time of year inspires.

Through selected poems and materials, we will immerse ourselves in the eerie, mysterious, and enchanting voices of poets from beyond the veil. We will explore the words of writers from various backgrounds as they reflect on life, death, and transformation.

This workshop invites you to use the season as a catalyst to play with the magic and mystery of life through the language of poetry.

Come and connect with others who share your passion for writing and the enchantment of this season.

Participants will be invited to craft their own cauldron of words to share with the group if they choose.

Participants are welcome to bring something warm to sip and savor and are invited to dress as their favorite artist or poet from beyond.

Reserve your broomstick now!

$25 for non-members and $10 for members. Funds from this event support our conference scholarship fund.

AUDIO and a workshop materials packet will be provided for those who are not able to attend the event. Audio access will be provided for one month after the event. This event will not be posted for public viewing.
