Write with Community November

Write with Community is designed to encourage writers to expand their geographic circle of community while building diverse creative networks
Writing workshops help creative voices speak. Meeting in person to do meaningful work offers the chance to share, grow, and feel energized.

In this three-part series, we will promote strong bonds for the attendees, facilitating the connections, networks, and safe spaces that help artists to thrive.  By merging free writing instruction with outreach, we can create geographic and social connections between communities. There is documented evidence that writing in community strengthens the social fabric.
