EDH - Poets and Writers of El Dorado: Writing Words to Light the Way

support@engagedpatrons.org (EngagedPatrons Support) — 2026-08-27T00:00:00-06:00

El Dorado Hills Library
Aug 27, 5:30-6:50 PM (Monthly, Last Thursdays, 5:30 PM)
]]>
This group will focus on poetry and writing that expands boundaries of thought and explores themes of social action and human rights. The workshop includes critique of personal writing, the sharing of notable poets and writers, and encourage the publication of finished work by individuals of the group. Speakers may be enlisted from time to time.

Writers play an important role in human rights advocacy as an expression of universal human experience. Writers can tell the truth, the good, the bad, the beautiful, our joys and sorrows. Writers reflect back to us and create future visions and say what others fear saying. We need writers to write new stories.

This group is facilitated by Lara Gularte, Poet Laureate Emeritus of El Dorado County. Her most recent book of poetry is Fourth World Woman (Finishing Line Press, 2022). Kissing the Bee (The Bitter Oleander Press, 2018) is about her California pioneer ancestors. Her writing is influenced by deep image poets. She has been published in many journals and anthologies and is affiliated with the Cigarros Colloquium: Azoreans Diaspora Writers, at the Portuguese Beyond Borders Institute (PBBI). She is a teaching artist of creative writing at Mule Creek State Prison and co-leads a poet and writers’ workshop with author, Beverly Parayno, at the Cameron Park Library. Gularte is known for conducting Ekphrastic poetry/writing workshops at local art galleries and hosts the popular monthly reading series, Poetry of the Sierra Foothills, at “Chateau Davell Winery” on the western slope of the Sierra Foothills.

Patterned after the popular Placerville group, Tuesdays at Two, the Georgetown Library version will be led by Taylor Graham, EDC Poet Laureate from 2016 - 2018. If you love poetry, write poetry, or dream about writing poetry, this group is for you! Assigned subjects will be offered to write poems about and then the poems are brought back to the group. This is not really a critique process but reading poems aloud to the group is a good way to hear what's working and what isn't. Participants also read from a list of established poets or bring poetry to share. There is also a 'word can'. Everyone pulls a word or phrase from the can and then uses them to write a poem in 10-15 minutes. This produces some strange and wild stuff and a lot of laughter!!!!

EDH - Poets and Writers of El Dorado: Writing Words to Light the Way

support@engagedpatrons.org (EngagedPatrons Support) — 2026-09-24T00:00:00-06:00

El Dorado Hills Library
Sep 24, 5:30-6:50 PM (Monthly, Last Thursdays, 5:30 PM)
]]>
This group will focus on poetry and writing that expands boundaries of thought and explores themes of social action and human rights. The workshop includes critique of personal writing, the sharing of notable poets and writers, and encourage the publication of finished work by individuals of the group. Speakers may be enlisted from time to time.

Writers play an important role in human rights advocacy as an expression of universal human experience. Writers can tell the truth, the good, the bad, the beautiful, our joys and sorrows. Writers reflect back to us and create future visions and say what others fear saying. We need writers to write new stories.

This group is facilitated by Lara Gularte, Poet Laureate Emeritus of El Dorado County. Her most recent book of poetry is Fourth World Woman (Finishing Line Press, 2022). Kissing the Bee (The Bitter Oleander Press, 2018) is about her California pioneer ancestors. Her writing is influenced by deep image poets. She has been published in many journals and anthologies and is affiliated with the Cigarros Colloquium: Azoreans Diaspora Writers, at the Portuguese Beyond Borders Institute (PBBI). She is a teaching artist of creative writing at Mule Creek State Prison and co-leads a poet and writers’ workshop with author, Beverly Parayno, at the Cameron Park Library. Gularte is known for conducting Ekphrastic poetry/writing workshops at local art galleries and hosts the popular monthly reading series, Poetry of the Sierra Foothills, at “Chateau Davell Winery” on the western slope of the Sierra Foothills.

Patterned after the popular Placerville group, Tuesdays at Two, the Georgetown Library version will be led by Taylor Graham, EDC Poet Laureate from 2016 - 2018. If you love poetry, write poetry, or dream about writing poetry, this group is for you! Assigned subjects will be offered to write poems about and then the poems are brought back to the group. This is not really a critique process but reading poems aloud to the group is a good way to hear what's working and what isn't. Participants also read from a list of established poets or bring poetry to share. There is also a 'word can'. Everyone pulls a word or phrase from the can and then uses them to write a poem in 10-15 minutes. This produces some strange and wild stuff and a lot of laughter!!!!

EDH - Poets and Writers of El Dorado: Writing Words to Light the Way

support@engagedpatrons.org (EngagedPatrons Support) — 2026-10-22T00:00:00-06:00

El Dorado Hills Library
Oct 22, 5:30-6:50 PM (Monthly, Last Thursdays, 5:30 PM)
]]>
This group will focus on poetry and writing that expands boundaries of thought and explores themes of social action and human rights. The workshop includes critique of personal writing, the sharing of notable poets and writers, and encourage the publication of finished work by individuals of the group. Speakers may be enlisted from time to time.

Writers play an important role in human rights advocacy as an expression of universal human experience. Writers can tell the truth, the good, the bad, the beautiful, our joys and sorrows. Writers reflect back to us and create future visions and say what others fear saying. We need writers to write new stories.

This group is facilitated by Lara Gularte, Poet Laureate Emeritus of El Dorado County. Her most recent book of poetry is Fourth World Woman (Finishing Line Press, 2022). Kissing the Bee (The Bitter Oleander Press, 2018) is about her California pioneer ancestors. Her writing is influenced by deep image poets. She has been published in many journals and anthologies and is affiliated with the Cigarros Colloquium: Azoreans Diaspora Writers, at the Portuguese Beyond Borders Institute (PBBI). She is a teaching artist of creative writing at Mule Creek State Prison and co-leads a poet and writers’ workshop with author, Beverly Parayno, at the Cameron Park Library. Gularte is known for conducting Ekphrastic poetry/writing workshops at local art galleries and hosts the popular monthly reading series, Poetry of the Sierra Foothills, at “Chateau Davell Winery” on the western slope of the Sierra Foothills.
