About the event

Join us for the first in a series of workshops aimed at generating creative responses to a prompt from our collaborator Sarah Ruhl. This project gathers the voices and perspectives of community members, writers, visual artists and performing artists around the common cause of protecting reproductive rights. All responses generated in our workshops will be archived on line. The project will culminate with a book arts publication and a performance at the Englert Theater.


Our first workshop leader is poet Jennifer MacBain-Stephens: Jennifer MacBain-Stephens (she/her) went to NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts and now lives in Iowa where she is landlocked. Her fifth, full length poetry collection, “Pool Parties” is now available from Unsolicited Press. She is the author of fifteen poetry chapbooks. Some of her work appears in The Pinch, South Broadway Ghost Society, Cleaver, Zone 3, Slant, Yalobusha Review, and Grist. Find her online at http://jennifermacbainstephens.com/
