Library to Host Children’s Poetry Workshop

Tompkins County Public Library will host poet and writer Robert Danberg for a series of interactive poetry workshops for children beginning Monday, June 26 at 10 a.m. in the Thaler/Howell Programming Room.

These free, fun-filled programs for children in kindergarten through second grade will offer an opportunity for young poets to connect with each other and their senses to create a list poem.

Danberg is the coordinator of campus-wide writing support at Binghamton University and has led poetry and writing workshop for students at Belle Sherman Elementary School.

This series will continue through the summer with additional programs planned for July 17 and August 17.
