Location: Salt City Market Community Room, 484 S. Salina St.

Vievee Francis (Dartmouth University)

Environmental Storytelling and the Collective Work of Repair continues with poet and scholar, Vievee Francis. This first interactive writing workshop explores and redefines eco-poetry through an interrogation of our inner environments. Francis reads and unpacks work related to environmental inheritance, haunting & poetic world-making. Facilitators from Write Out, a community-based creative writing collective in Syracuse, collaborate with Francis to help workshop participants engage their own writing inspired by Francis’s work.

Francis also presents a public reading on campus, Dec. 7th.

Environmental Storytelling and the Collective Work of Repair is a year-long exploration of the environmental humanities and arts organized by the Engaged Humanities Network in the College of Arts & Sciences, and SUNY-ESF’s Writing, Rhetoric, and Communications Program.
