Writing Under The Influence | Shawnte Orion: "Places Remembered and Invented"
6PM MONDAY, APRIL 24
Join us for a series of in-person writing workshops hosted by Changing Hands Bookstore on the fourth Monday of every month.
This month, Shawnte Orion presents "Places Remembered and Invented."
ABOUT THE WORKSHOP
Writing is often rooted in place. This workshop will explore the cartography of the inner and outer spaces where memories dwell. We will try out generative exercises that sift through the debris of time and space, but also allow for projection and invention that is not confined to the limitations of reality.
WORKSHOP DETAILS
- Cost: $8.
- Register below.
- Refunds will not be issued within one day of the event.
