Join the Somerville Museum for a hands-on creative workshop where historic letters, newspapers, maps, and documents become the raw material


Create poetry from the past.


Join the Somerville Museum for a hands-on creative workshop where historic letters, newspapers, maps, and documents become the raw material for art. Using reproduced archival texts, participants will craft found and blackout poetry, revealing hidden voices, emotions, and stories already embedded in the words of earlier generations.


Inspired by our popular Collage from the Collection program, this workshop invites you to cut, mark, highlight, and transform history into powerful visual poems.
