The Royal City Literary Arts Society is inviting everyone to have some fun with words at an upcoming poetry workshop.

Angelica Poversky leads the interactive workshop on Saturday, May 18 from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. at the Anvil Centre (Room 417), 777 Columbia St.

Participants are invited to “introduce spontaneity, creativity and delight” into their poetry through the workshop, which includes activities that centre around performance and improvisation – including clowning.

“With exercises such as crafting a “rid-list”, exorcising old grief through comedic performances, and stream-of-consciousness poetry writing, this workshop will not only hone in on the development of poetic skill, but also serves as a way to cope and continue,” says a write-up ab out the workshop.

The workshop costs $15 for members, $25 for non-members. Pre-register at [email protected], or check out www.rclas.com for information.
