# Event Details - **Event Name**: Free Generative Poetry Writing Session at Rocket Reuse! - **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 22 Jul, 2026 at 04:00 pm – Wed, 22 Jul, 2026 at 06:00 pm - **Event Description**: Spend two hours writing and sharing poetry with kindred spirits. Bring a notebook, a writing utensil, and your imagination. Join us!About this Event will lead a free two-hour poetry writing session at Rocket Reuse's lavish and expansive new space! No prior poetry experience is necessary.In this two-hour generative writing session, we’ll write using techniques inspired by the Dadaist and Surrealist writers of the early 20th century. We will borrow language, collaborate with authors both living and dead, create wild juxtapositions, and use a boatload (maybe even a ) of chance methods, all in an effort to get out of our normal, conscious mode of thinking and enter into the dream realms of the unconscious. (You know…where the good stuff happens!) Oh yes, and we’ll have lots of fun while we do it. (“If I continue to do something,” Tristan Tzara, the granddaddy of Dada once wrote, “it is because it amuses me.”)Don’t be intimidated by any of this jargon; what this means is, we’re going to play some games and maybe, just maybe, you’ll walk away with poems you never realized were capable of writing. You’ll meet likeminded strangers and you might even learn a thing or two. Bring a notebook, some writing utensils, and a readiness to write poems together.“Dada is not modern at all; it is rather a return to a quasi-Buddhist religion of indifference. Dada puts an artificial sweetness onto things, a snow of butterflies coming out of a conjurer's skull. Dada is stillness and does not understand the passions.” - Tristan Tzara, “Lecture on Dada” (1922) - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/alameda/free-generative-poetry-writing-session-at-rocket-reuse/100001993372427591 - **Event Categories**: fitness, Art, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Age Limit: under_14_with_guardian - Duration: 2 hours - Location: Rocket Reuse - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Alameda - **state**: CA - **country**: United States - **location**: Rocket Reuse - **lat**: 37.7647493 - **long**: -122.2420479 - **full address**: Rocket Reuse, 1424 Park Street, Alameda, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Free Generative Poetry Writing Session at Rocket Reuse! - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/67596aa76afa4c094e26e8b689a126c1840fb1592e9bcddca37d7ca37cf33dd6-rimg-w1200-h933-dcd1ac77-gmir.jpg?v=1783458227 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Free Generative Poetry Writing Session at Rocket Reuse! being held? - **A:** Free Generative Poetry Writing Session at Rocket Reuse! takes place on Wed, 22 Jul, 2026 at 04:00 pm to Wed, 22 Jul, 2026 at 06:00 pm at Rocket Reuse, 1424 Park Street, Alameda, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Free Generative Poetry Writing Session at Rocket Reuse!? - **A:** Free Generative Poetry Writing Session at Rocket Reuse! is organized by Margaret Reges. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
