8-Week Workshop
This is The Poetry Center’s professional-level course. This workshop series is best for you if:

Master’s workshops allow participants to workshop long portions of manuscripts. Like the Advanced course, you may take the Master’s workshop repeatedly as you continue to develop projects.
