Join us as we explore Found Poetry and art!

Join us as we explore Found Poetry and art! Found poetry is a type of poetry in which you pick out words on a book page that you feel work together to create a short poem. It is a sort of word collage. We will then decorate the page using various methods and materials to reflect the feeling of the poem created. Examples will be shown.

Anyone willing to display their poems will be added to the Poetry display in the Teen Room for the month.

AGE GROUP: | Teens (12-18 years) |
