Creative Writing Workshop for Rest + Renewal - 02.19.22, 9 AM - 10:30 AM

$70.00

Join us for our Creative Writing Workshop for Rest & Renewal at the Be Just Classroom in Belmont. Raisa Tolchinsky will guide participants through a 90-minute workshop where you will wonder together over the questions: How can journaling and writing be a tool for restoring our creative worlds? How can we use the practice of writing and reading to replenish our sense of awe and inspiration? Participants will experience a mindful and meditative exploration of writing by creating their own works, as well as reading and discussing poems and short excerpts selected by Raisa. We ask that participants bring a writing utensil and a journal to write in. This class is ideal for all skill levels - no creative writing experience necessary!
