In this poetry writing workshop, writers can expect to explore the world of poetry through the lens of writers who have spent their lives contributing to the accentuation of heritage, identity, and culture in our global society.
Writers will also have the opportunity to participate in exercises and workshop discussions to help broaden their poetic perspectives. By participating in this workshop, writers will leave with the inspiration to tap into what makes them who they are and create powerful poetry from the inward experience of the self.
The Wayne Branch Library first opened in December of 1969 in a shopping center located at 7341 Rockville Road. Due to high demand, the storefront space was enlarged in 1973, but the need for more space was evident. A permanent 13,500 square foot location opened in 1984, and the branch remains in that same building today. The Wayne Branch underwent a $1.1 million renovation in 2020 to add more seating and activity space, study rooms, and a quiet reading area, but still features the split design of a separate children's and adult wing.
