Description

Join us for a celebration of National Poetry Month and make your own blackout poetry.  Blackout poems can be created using the pages of old books, magazines, or even articles cut from yesterday’s newspaper. Using the pages of an existing text and a Sharpie® marker, blackout poets isolate single words or short phrases by completely blacking out unneeded words, leaving the selected words to create lyrical masterpieces. 

Refreshments and materials for this program are made possible by the Friends of the Cinco Ranch Branch Library.

Seating is limited so registration is required.  Register in person, online, or by calling 281-395-1311.
