Emily Rose, workshop leader from Chicago.

Special one-night only workshop! Emily Rose will offer an early-bird workshop at the Cantab Lounge before her feature. Drop-ins are welcome to swing by. Workshop description:

Sex is a natural part of human existence, yet it seems that a lot of “erotic poems” are meant to be more pornographic than part of the human experience. In this workshop we will discuss the place of sex in poetry as a means to explore the topics of intimacy, relationships, gender dynamics, social change and the politics of desire.

Doors open at 5:30 for attendees, and the workshop runs from 6:00 to 7:00. Cover charge is $5, which includes admission to the evening show. The venue is 18+ (ID required).
