“Writing from Historical Objects” is a free writing workshop offered by Chisholm Trail Heritage Center, funding by Oklahoma Arts Council.
Many American poets have used historical documents, images, and stories as a basis for powerful poems that explore cultural memory, the place where personal and cultural history intersect.
Plan on using an item in the Heritage Center collection or bring your own “historical”—personal, familial or cultural: photo, document or object for your writing prompt.
Mish is a scholar, poet, and prose writer, and 2017-18 Oklahoma State Poet Laureate.
