Community Poetry

Megan has been involved in a number of community poetry projects in San Mateo County, California. She has worked with individual elementary-school classes to write odes to California and has also worked with a local martial arts studio to create a poem around the prompt “Oss Is.” She is always looking for ways to collaboratively write poems.
