Queer Crafting Collective: Boggle Poetry

  • The Center: 7 Rivers LGBTQ Connection 230 6th St S La Crosse, WI, 54601 United States (map)

Play Boggle to create a word list, then create your own poem! This event is free and will be held by H Murray Valentine. All are welcome!

During the 2020 lockdown, Murray played Boggle on Zoom with friends as a way to check in every week. They challenged one another to create songs, poems, and art based on our collective words. There were no strict rules, and they didn't play to win. The aim was to delight one another and to keep creating despite the unknown. Since then Murray has written many poems with this method and turned it into a writing workshop. The Boggle Poetry writing workshop aims to bring joy, connection, and inspiration to writers and gameplayers of all levels. 

H Murray Valentine is poet, artist, and diviner in the Driftless Region. Xe believes in the healing art of nonsense. You can find xem online at hmurrayvalentine.net and on instagram @inherentquerent
