Hi!

Have you tried looking for a class to take? I don’t know if there is like a community college, or Art-promoting organization in your community that gives classes, but you might look into that. Maybe a local book store has an open-mic night, and you can ask some of the poets how they got started/if they have some group going on you don’t know about.

Also, these crazy “Wine & Paint” parties that are becoming pretty popular.

Just some thoughts. Good Luck!
