All genres, and skill levels are welcome to our AWA and Expressive Arts inspired writing workshop. If you don’t have any work that’s o.k. too, you will by the end of the day! Writing prompts to take home after the workshop are provided, along with refreshments. AWA skills are reviewed at each session to ensure a safe, respectful, & considerate space while creating new work and reviewing older work. Turning the Compost is the April theme as prompts will support editing techniques that hone our craft as writers in what ever phase of development. This also applies to what ever phase of composting our work is in. Repurposing creative works can be enlightening, prophetic, profound, gratifying, calming, and healing. Organic writing methods support Human artistry. Join the community garden.
