Pongo Workshops
This section will have sample poems from Pongo's poetry workshops.
Currently, we are featuring writing from Mission Creek Corrections Center (adult women). This writing was created in workshops that Richard led in collaboration with choreographer Pat Graney. Pat has been running her "Keeping the Faith" (KTF) performance projects with incarcerated women for 16 years. Poetry was included with dance and art in KTF performances at the prison on May 7 and May 8, 2010.
