Poetry Workshops in NJ
January 12-15, 2024
Each poetry workshop offers craft discussion, writing prompts, writing time, feedback, motivation and inspiration. Participants will venture deeper into their writing, making more progress than they thought possible.
*Limited to just 10 participants per section.*
“Attending this year really reaffirmed my belief: for me, participating in the Getaway is not solely about honing craft, but also about obtaining the literary stimulation my brain demands. The Getaway is the warmest and most ideal environment to re-establish and rework the creative connections in my brain. The readings are stirring and insightful, and the workshops are full of amazing discussion of craft mechanics. I leave feeling balanced, satiated and whole every time!”

“The Getaway provided a welcoming community of incredibly talented writers, both as peers and as faculty. Peter proved a wonderful and warm host the entire weekend. I learned a great deal about my poems, my writing process and myself as a person.”
