Hudson Valley Memoir Group Celebrates it’s Second Anniversary

The Hudson Valley Memoir Group is celebrating its second anniversary. The group meets the second Thursday of the month, from 6 to 9 PM, at the Pine Hills Branch of the Albany Public Library. We use the workshop approach where each member reads their memoir story to the group and, afterwards, members discuss the story and make written comments. We have limited the group to 12, so that each member can present a story at each meeting.

There is no charge to participate. Presently, we have one opening.

If you are working on a memoir and would like more information, please contact Mark Berger at [email protected]
