JAN Writers Gym: GENERATING MEDIUM-INFORMED CONTENT
SESSION LEADER: DYLAN SIMON
Generating Medium-Informed Content with Dylan Simon is a Writer’s Gym focused on the mediums and tools used for writing. We will look at the differences in content when writing with different mediums. Bring a favorite writing tool to use or share if you would like, but there will be typewriters, pens, pencils, and more provided. Be prepared to try multiple tools for writing, then we will talk about your experiences with them during the workshop.

BREATHING MUSEUM: A TRIBUTE READING / APRIL 19, 2025
BREATHING MUSEUM: A TRIBUTE READING / APRIL 19, 2025
SATURDAY, APRIL 19
FNPL + THE PORCH
Breathing Museum is a poetry reading that honors Tennessee poets who have made a personal impact on local writers. At this gathering, contemporary poets will share the works of poets who have passed, celebrating voices that continue to resonate. These readings pay tribute not only to the poetry itself but also to the lives and stories of the poets—those whose creative contributions shaped their communities and whose words still move within those who knew them, worked with them, and saw them perform. Through this communal act of remembrance, we bring renewed breath to their writing. Breathing Museum reminds us that poetry, like breath, connects us across generations, through time and place.
