About this Event

Story Writing Class


This is a series of 9 classes (held on Mondays, May-June) that will follow the process of writing a full script. Each class will zoom in on a specific writing technique/idea/format with allotted time to practice in the form of a curated writing exercise, making it perfect for beginners and seasoned writers alike.


You have a story to tell, learn how to tell it better.


Classes are priced $25/Class. You can get $50 off (basically two free classes) by registering for all 9, making it a total of $175. You can do this by purchasing the Seat for the Semester ticket option for May 4th (the one ticket will be for all 9 classes).
