<br>
That will be our last program before our annual summer holiday. Beyond Baroque will be closed from Saturday, June 28 through Monday, July 7. Please note that all of our spaces will be closed during that time, including our bookstore and gallery. The Monday Night Fiction Workshop will be offered online on June 30, but the Wednesday Night Poetry Workshop will be on hiatus on July 2 before returning the following week. Meanwhile, the application for our Poetry Coalition Fellowship in Fundraising and Development is due July 1.<br>
<br>
We’ll be back in July with some exciting programming. We look forward to seeing you again very soon!</span></span></span></p>

Our lives are made up both by what is happening in the moment, what has happened in the past, and what will happen in the future, but how do we write poems that capture this experience of time? In this three-hour workshop, we will explore how to layer multiple scenes within a poem, and how a poem can capture nonlinear time. This workshop will be a mix of lecture, guided close readings of poems, and generative writing. In considering time, we will focus on poetic structure, considering the many ways the container of the poem can capture at once the past, present, and future. - L.A. Johnson</span></span></span><br>
