Writing workshop with Gi (Ginny) Huo

This is a writing workshop where participants will be asked to bring in an object of in/significance to the space and begin writing based on, about or around the object. If an object is forgotten, participants will be asked to write about an object they are presently carrying or imagined. For those who would like to participate, we will discuss why we brought the object and share with the group what has been written. This workshop will include a reading from Gi (Ginny) Huo's book _calling/부름 (Small Editions). _

Free flow writing, no experience or preparation needed, welcoming any one who wants to join.
