Erasure or blackout poems are created by covering up or “erasing” parts of pre-existing texts including books, medical papers, legal documents, and more. In this two-day generative workshop students will work with Auburn's Poet Laureate, Mateo Acuña, to create blackout poetry and analyze erasures as conversing with and countering the original source text as a means for advocacy, social justice, and dissent against mainstream narratives.

Dates: March 26th and 27th, 6 - 7:30PM
Ages: 15+
Fee: $25/$32 Resident/Non-Res
Instructor: Mateo Acuña
