SUMMARY:Poetics of Cascadian Land and Water
DESCRIPTION:The Poetics of Cascadian Land and Water with Harold Rhenisch\nSaturdays 3-5 PM PST\nONLINE\nJanuary 10\, 17\, 24\, 31 & Feb. 7 \n$125\nREGISTER HERE \nThis is a workshop in poetic fusion. Cascadia began with a language that united cultures: Chinook Wawa. This series of workshops expands its gift of integration between the ancient languages of the Columbia and its new languages\, French and English. To do so\, it draws in American\, Canadian\, Wawa and North European poetries\, with a concentration on opening doorways. The first workshop explores Chinook Wawa to place traditions of language and poetry within Cascadian place\, opening doors for Wawa to lead us closer to land and water. The second workshop explores the Old Norse language of land and sea that Cascadia’s first Europeans\, northmen from the Scottish islands\, brought to the Columbia. It is a workshop in English as an Indigenous language\, opening doors for one-on-one conversations with other languages of the land. The third workshop explores the contributions of various French dialects and cultures\, which arrived simultaneously from Quebec\, le-Pays-d’en-Haut and Louisiana. It is a workshop in the breadth of language as civic discourse. It mines American (think: Ezra Pound and Denise Levertov) and British Columbian (think: Charles Lillard and Daphne Marlatt) models for techniques of integration across dictions\, allowing history to be written on Cascadian terms. The fourth workshop explores the transcripts of the Walla Walla Treaty Council of 1855. This all-important council was conducted in Wawa and recorded in English. The workshop explores the differences between American and Indigenous uses of Wawa at the council and then applies them to expansions of current poetic models in what has long been a land of translation. Black history at Hanford is part of this story. The fifth workshop references integrative traditions from British Columbia which fuse British and American poetic traditions. It explores line breaks in detail and how they guide bodies moving in space. Our goal overall is to speak as Cascadians\, from here and from our rich linguistic tradition\, emphasizing voice\, person to person\, people to land\, and the past to an integrative future.

SUMMARY:DaySong Workshop
DESCRIPTION:The DaySong is a potent ritual that requires preparation and some projective writing ability. You can’t fake it. You have to have a writing practice\, but if you do\, you can be astonished at how much you can write in one day. Writing from Denise Levertov’s notion of “form is never more than a revelation of content” there is potent information the universe seeks to drop into your mind and into the poem written through you. \nPaul E Nelson has written 7 such daysongs\, has modeled them after similar works by Bernadette Mayer\, Pierre Joris\, Ed Sanders\, Brenda Hillman and others and can help you prepare for an auspicious daysong experience February 1\, 2026\, Imbolc. \nThe workshop is free to the first 15 members of the Cascadia Poetics Lab that register. Members are anyone who has attended a CPL workshop or festival. A suggested donation of $20-$40 is appreciated. Strategies for the day-of your daysong as well as preparation tips\, links to helpful sources and an in-class writing exercise will be offered. \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Poetics as Cosmology Fall 2025
DESCRIPTION:Poetics as Cosmology Fall 2025 \nThursdays\, 3-5 PM PDT\nOctober 30\, November 6\, 13\, 20\, and December 4\, 2025 \nA five week online (Zoom) workshop best suited for continuing participants and more experienced poets (open to open form) in workshops facilitated by Cascadia Poetics Lab and Poetry Postcard Fest Co-Founder Paul E Nelson. Participate in reading and discussion of foundational essays\, interviews\, listening and other assignments\, as well as spontaneous poetry composition exercises. In Fall  2025\, we’ll explore a short history of Projective/Outside North American Poetry\, focused on: \n\nWhitman & Dickinson\nWCW & Lorine Niedecker\nOlson and Levertov\nMcClure & di Prima\nDaphne Marlatt\, Brenda Hillman & Nate Mackey\n\nand related texts and assignments. How can one’s poetics be a cosmology and how can one maintain some experience of the Poetry Postcard Fest\, & allow one’s life as a creative participant in the world to rise in one’s personal hierarchy of duties/activities? How is the projective poem an antidote to Silicon Valley attention fracking? An alternative to A.I. Slop? Will you let the machines do your thinking? \nRegistration $250. Canadians in need can pay $250 CAD. Some scholarships available. \nREGISTER HERE
