Poetry Events Coming to Athens in October

Two poetry events are coming up this October at The Color of Ideas Community Arts Center (TCOI) – just off the Square at 207 E.Tyler Street:

Friday, October 3, at 7 p.m. there will be an Art & Soul Poetry Gathering, with two local poets presenting: Charlotte Renk, Ph.D, who will be reading poems from her latest award winning book of poetry and Victoria Phillips, whom Dr. Renk personally picked to share the evening!

The following week, Saturday, October 11, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., Dr. Renk will be offering a poetry workshop at TCOI entitled,”Priming the Heart and Mind for Writing Art.” Retired from 35 years as an English Professor, a published poet (3 books) and writer (well over 100 articles published), you can be sure that Dr. Renk knows how to put together a substantial and inspiring poetry workshop!

If poetry is your thing, don’t miss this remarkable opportunity to study with Dr. Renk — an eminently qualified guide and working poet! The cost for the 3 hour workshop is $60. Enrollment is limited to 15 people! Sign up now – either on The Color of Ideas facebook page or drop by TCOI (Tues. through Sat. 9 a.m. to noon) — to reserve a space!
