Join us for this writing workshop full of self discovery and exploration. Writing the self is never easy. It's even harder to paint ourselves in with layers and light or really embrace ourselves with grace and respect on the page. Whether you journal, or write poetry and prose, this workshop will give you skills on how to write your authentic self with pride and kinder eyes.

Through the lens of James Baldwin, Audre Lorde, Mary Oliver, and Ross Gay we will practice writing the self with kindness and honesty by embracing the fullness of our identities on the page.
This one-day workshop offers a supportive and inclusive space for individuals to explore and celebrate their unique stories. We'll engage in a series of thought-provoking discussions, guided writing exercises, and inspiring readings, while delving into the power of authentic storytelling.
Whether you are an experienced writer or new to the craft, "Authentic Voices" workshop will empower you to write with confidence and pride. Bring a pen, paper, or laptop, and your beautiful self! *open to all identities, backgrounds, and experience levels*
