'Poetry is Courageous" - Young Adults Workshop

The Destin Library will host a series of innovative workshops aimed at Middle School students who are aspiring writers beginning Tuesday, November 7^th. Registrations will be limited so as to facilitate program quality.

During the workshops, young writers will engage in a variety of activities designed to inspire creativity, gain understanding of written form, “speak” from ones heart, develop greater confidence in public speaking and practice the art of poetic delivery.

Poetry Is Courageous: Silencing doubts, as our hearts speak out, is the creation of local poet Kerrian Harris. Through poetry and short stories, she has found her voice and has been able to express her hidden inner most thoughts. She believes that many young adults can find solace in practicing poetry which will enable them to release their feelings and emotions.
