Longing to connect on a deeper level? Looking to explore questions that keep arising? Come. Be inspired. Follow your pen into Mystery. Pray on paper. Write towards a deeper understanding of who you were, who you are, and who you are called to be.
No previous writing experience is necessary.
Come to our safe, affirming circle with an open heart, an empty notebook, and leave with a practice that will challenge, console and delight. We follow the Amherst Writers and Artists Method in which you learn to trust your own voice.
**Coffee will be provided, please plan to bring a litterless lunch or purchase lunch from a local café**
