About the workshop
What Is Poesía?
Poesía is a 12-week poetry and language immersion experience created by spoken word artist Dasia Hood. Each week, you'll choose a poem in English to translate into Spanish and gather with others virtually to share, explore, and expand your language skills through the power of poetry.
Whether you're fluent, learning, or reconnecting with Spanish, this space welcomes you.
We translate. We speak. We feel. We grow.
