March 10, 2025, Adrian, Michigan – Beginning and experienced creative writers are invited to a hybrid writing workshop from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Saturday, April 12, 2025, at Weber Retreat and Conference Center or via Zoom.
In the Northern Hemisphere, this time of year can feel like Christmas in the anticipation of spring and the wonder of which flowers will begin to blossom first as the days warm. Nature’s anticipation mirrors ours as we imagine how our lives will unfold. Come spend this time with other writers: writing, reading, and giving feedback to other writers about the strengths we notice in their work.
The workshop is facilitated by Sister Tarianne DeYonker, OP, a certified Amherst Writers and Artists Facilitator. The cost is $35. A Zoom link will be sent closer to the workshop event for those who plan to attend virtually.
Registration is required. Visit www.webercenter.org and click on “programs,” call 517-266-4000, or email [email protected]. Limited scholarships are available.
