Here in New Jersey, it finally feels like spring. The last bits of snow have melted, we’re shedding our winter coats, and buds are starting to pop up in the grass and on branches. What better day for us to open registration for Spring & Fountain Online?

This week-long online poetry retreat is designed especially for educators to enjoy on their own schedules and from the comfort of their homes, with the added bonus of a web forum for communicating and connecting with other participants from around the country.

During the week of April 22, participants will receive:
• a curated packet of 30 poems by contemporary poets
• seven daily e-mails with mindfulness activities, journal prompts and writing activities
• access to a special Google Group for discussion with other participants
• videos of poets reading their work

We hope that this program will help participants to refresh their creativity and connect to sources of inspiration. Our aim is to give you lots of resources and tools to use not only in the classroom, but also for your own personal enjoyment and creative life.

Registration is open now and will close on April 20th.

Sign up here!
