November 6 from 1:00 – 3:00 pm
A picture is worth a thousand words and your imagination is worth trillions! Explore creative writing and storytelling in this workshop, first examining images provided by the instructor and then developing the story that the pictures tell. We’ll look at the images as a group and as individuals. If you’ve already written a short story of your own, feel free to develop it into a longer one in this class. If you want to tell stories or want to grow as a storyteller/creative writer, this workshop is a mellow and fun way to explore the many stories already living in your imagination. Bring your favorite notebook and writing utensils. Please enter through the 5th Street door.
