This year we also welcomed two new guests to Poetry Week! On Day 3, Poet Dina Elenbogen, an ETHS parent and creative writing professor at the University of Chicago, led students through two workshops focused on places and identity. On Day 4 of Poetry Week, as is tradition, we took a bit of a breather in preparation for tomorrow's Open Mic, BUT we also welcomed Columbia College Chicago's Tony Trigilio, who led two workshops connecting poetry to mindfulness and meditation.
TOMORROW: Poetry Week Open Mic kicks off during 4th period in East Library and continues through each lunch period. Come read your poetry, or just listen to your classmates, and enjoy a light lunch.
