Our spring creative writing workshop season is in full swing, thanks to donor support!
We’re writing with 14 different communities across the Portland area right now! We bring our healing creative writing program to nonprofits and other agencies across the Portland Metro. Participants write for 6-10 weeks with a volunteer facilitator and are published in an anthology.
