Scheduled Events:
SUMMER WRITING PROJECT. Do you have a writing project you’ve been dreaming about bringing into fruition? A novel, collection of essays, collection of poems, memoir, or covey of short stories? In this weekly adult writing group we’ll gather in the MacArthur House and work together to outline and discuss our literary goals and get supportive feedback on our work. We’ll spend our time discussing our project with a supportive group of peers and sharing pieces of our writing in a traditional (yet kind) workshop structure. Tea & snacks will be provided. Wine is welcome.
Writers with all levels of writing experience are encouraged to participate. All genres of creative writing are welcome–fiction, memoir, poetry, essays. This group will be a safe place to give your literary aspirations wings!
