TEACHING

In addition to being a stellar author, performer and speaker, Patricia is also in demand as a teacher of creative writing. She offers lectures, writing/performance workshops and residencies for all ages, from kindergarten to senior citizens—in schools, shelters, prisons, senior centers, libraries, community centers, and for festivals and writing conferences. She specializes in innovative ways to bring poetry to underserved communities, and has designed workshops for teachers looking for ways to incorporate poetry into their classrooms.
