Collaborative Writing Retreat

Let’s Play and Write!

Join Alexandra Hewett for an interactive creative workshop including writing prompts, improv, movement, and collaborative writing exercises. Writing can be a lonely process, come to connect and create…TOGETHER!

No preparation is necessary. Please note we will take a short walk to Patterson Park during the workshop. Please dress comfortably, bring a notebook and pen, and your sense of adventure and curiosity.

The session is limited to twelve participants.
