ECOS: That’s My Heart Right There: Poetry Workshop

This event is a part of ECOS: A Chicago Latine Poetry Festival

In this all-ages poetry workshop, the Chicago Poetry Center will lead attendees in a poetry writing workshop titled: “That’s My Heart Right There.”

Inspired by Willie Perdomo’s poem of the same title, we will discuss the words and phrases we use to express love for each other to each other. Let's write some love poems together.

No experience is necessary! Space is limited, please register in advance!
