Writers Workshop

Conjure:
Family & Folklore as Inspiration for Creative Writing

This generative workshop will inspire writers (poets, fiction, and non-fiction writers) to use family photos, archives, histories, and even folklore as endless inspiration for new work. Using a series of images, writers will be challenged to examine photographs and explore the characters, landscape and environment of these photographs to dabble in persona writing which may creatively record family, community, cultural history/events and "conjure" new visions. The emphasis of the workshop is exploring and brainstorming through writing prompts and exercises to discover possibilities for further writing and development. The workshop is designed for adults ages 18 and up. No professional writing experience is required, only a passion for writing Participants should bring notebooks, paper, pens, pencils, laptop or tablets in order to participate in writing exercises. Additionally, participants should bring at least one photo from their own family archive to use in a writing exercise
