Industry Workshop | Earth Day with Twitter: Poetry for Our Planet
Wednesday, April 20
4:30-6 PM ET
online event; open only to all mentees, mentee alumni and Twitter employees
In celebration of Earth Day and National Poetry month, Twitter employees—mentors for the day— and Girls Write Now mentees join forces to put some beauty and love for Mother Nature out in the world by creating centos (group poems) one line at a time.
Protecting the earth requires restraint, using less and reducing our carbon footprint. Twitter is designed to communicate your message with brevity and precision.
In this workshop, led by Brittany Barker, educator, poet and Girls Write Now mentee alumna, we will practice being good stewards of the earth by being economical in our message about caring for the world around us.
Hungry for more eco-writing? Come to our follow-up event on Twitter Spaces with special guest Roxane Gay the next day, April 21 at 6 PM ET.
