SUMMARY:The Poetics of Place
DESCRIPTION:Join Christopher Luna for a day of poetry on Plas Newydd Farm. Christopher will lead a group of eight to ten writers in a day of mindful exploration of place and poetics. We will read\, write and walk in mindful observation. Abby Braithwaite of the Plas Newydd Farm Arts Initiative will lead the group on a short walk and share a brief history of the farm. (Walk will be adapted the mobility needs of the group.) Poetry provides a way to explore our universe and document this process of discovery. We will read poets who have engaged with nature and complete a series of writing exercises. There will be an emphasis on mindful observation and real-time tracking of our daily movements. We will also discuss the role that observation and research play in building a body of reality-based work with the potential to engender compassion\, understanding\, and progressive social action.

Luna has an MFA from the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics.
