SUMMARY:Portrait Essays: A Writing Workshop
DESCRIPTION:In this multi-disciplinary\, cross-generational writing and art workshop\, we’ll pull from several tools and practices–portraiture\, poetry\, writing\, and journalism–to get curious about the people we don’t know\, and the people we thought we knew. \nBring a photograph or image of someone you want to know more about. It can be of an individual or an individual in a group but must include the person you want to write about. Something that represents that person or makes you ask questions. It can be a historical figure or a passing fancy or an intimate acquaintance. \nBonus points if it’s a person from a different generation. Extra\, extra bonus points if it’s a person you disagree with ideologically. \nOver the course of the workshop we will use writing prompts\, artistic perspectives\, and even journalistic interviewing to practice curiosity\, listening\, and understanding to dig deeper into who that person is\, why they do what they do\, where they come from–and in the process\, maybe even learn a little bit more about ourselves\, and all of us in our flawed and beautiful human lives. \nParticipants will come out of the workshop with a working document\, the tools\, and next steps to continue their quest into deeper understanding and listening. \nCost: $40-$60 sliding scale Register online at  https://bentoncountymuseums.org/events/portrait-essays-writing-workshop/
