Beyond Academia Free Skool In-Person

"Beyond Academia Free Skool (BAFS) is a community co-created nonprofit organization committed to poetic and performance art educational events. Inspired by the “free skool movement”, BAFS was founded in 2012 to ensure all people have access to high quality arts based curricula, regardless of socioeconomic status. BAFS believes poetry is capable of transforming society towards a more just and equitable space in which all voice’s are expressed, heard, and valued. Workshops include writing prompts, relevant lectures on theory, opportunities to grow one’s poetic performance, presentations on the work of notable poets/their value to contemporary poetry, opportunities to share one’s writing, as well as open discussion which builds community and strengthens the writer's reflective practice. BAFS has been a Sponsored Library Program at the Boulder Public Library since 2018, and fiscally sponsored by the Boulder County Arts Alliance since 2017. All BAFS events are always 100% free to attend!"
