Description
Simply put, this workshop is about opening the door to telling your story with words and images. We’ll start a 12-page memoir, no skills necessary. We will do some simple drawing and writing activities to get started and then dive into creating your memoir with images and text and above all encouragement to continue your story. There is no such thing as a bad drawing, and we all have a story to tell. Let’s find out what yours is.
The registration fee for this event is $10. All proceeds of the event go to Upstart & Crow’s non-profit programming, including writer residencies, book clubs, grants and more. Please RSVP here to reserve your spot.
