CPITS 50th Anniversary Symposium -- Join the Fun

Are you a poet, a poetry teacher, a classroom teacher??

Immerse yourself in an all-day poetry writing adventure and learn new strategies to awaken your own inner writer, and if you're a teacher, learn a new way to foster student imagination and creative language skills in the classroom.

California Poets in the Schools 50th Anniversary Teaching Symposium, Voices of Gold, features 15 interdisciplinary poetry writing workshops with performance, music, art, and yoga options, October 10-12, with a special “Saturday-only” workshop option. The event happens at the idyllic IONS Earthrise Retreat Center in Marin County.

Please contact the San Francisco CPITS office (415) 221-4201 and ask for Tina. You can register by phone, by email, or snail mail. Ask for the special Saturday pass, or Classroom Teacher discounts. This is a neat chance to walk away with ready-to-roll writing lesson ideas for all ages in a fun, restful and supportive atmosphere. We will also debut our first lesson plan book, “Poetry Crossing: 50 Lessons for K-12 Classrooms.” There is also a special local Saturday & Sunday Day Pass commuter option as well.
