The Multilingual Writer

This workshop aims to create a dynamic and inclusive space where multilingual writers can explore and celebrate their linguistic diversity. Participants will be provided tools and techniques to integrate their multiple languages into their writing and discuss how this can make for an enriching and dynamic experience for our readers. The objectives are to discuss how more than one language may offer certain linguistic and cultural vantage points that one singular language may not, to practice multilingual writing in different contexts, e.g., poetry, fiction, etc., and to foster a sense of community among multilingual writers. Open to writers of all levels and genres.

This workshop meets on Sat, Nov 16 from 1-3pm at LitArts RI.
