ABOUT

About this class:

This is a 4-meeting virtual class using the Zoom platform.

Thursdays Sept 7, 14, 21, 28 - 1-3:00 pm CT

Food is a subject that activates all five senses and our imagination. Food allows us to relive memories, reach out to others, and create " tasty" articles, poetry, fiction, memoir, and more. In this class we will explore the role of food as prompt and prop to energize your writing with all of the natural vitamins food can offer.

Instructor bio:

Joan Leotta is an author of eleven books published by five different publishers, and a story performer. Both her writings and performances are often food-inspired. She has written food for magazines, newspapers, books, and poetry. Her latest book is Feathers on Stone. She is a two-time Pushcart nominee, Best of the Net Nominee and a 2022 Runner up in the Robert Frost Foundation contest.

HND VALUE STATEMENT

Any views, findings, conclusions, or recommendations expressed in this {article, book, exhibition, film, program, database, report, Web resource}, do not necessarily represent those of the National Endowment for the Humanities or Humanities North Dakota. However, in an increasingly polarized world, we at Humanities North Dakota believe that being open-minded is necessary to thinking critically and rationally. Therefore our programs and classes reflect our own open-mindedness in the inquiry, seeking, and acquiring of scholars to speak at our events and teach classes for our Public University. To that end, we encourage our participants to join us in stepping outside our comfort zones and considering other perspectives and ideas by being open-minded while attending HND events featuring scholars who hold a variety of opinions, some being opposite of our own held beliefs.
