Pen to Paper: Rooted in Place

​General event description here.

​In this workshop, we’ll explore the art of scene-setting through the lens of natural spaces and the world around us. Whether it’s a lush paradise, an abandoned city lot, or a single potted plant on a cluttered windowsill, organic materials are rich with sensory details that bring your writing to life. We'll start with a grounding meditation to conjure vivid imagery and sensory language. Then, we’ll move into playful yet challenging exercises where you’ll create immersive settings and stories.

​Whether you’re looking to shake up an existing creative practice or seek inspiration to further your writing, this class will give you a deeper understanding of how a setting can shape mood, tone, and character.

​This workshop will be a safe space for creative expression without judgment. We will have ample opportunity to share work or personal experiences to explore vulnerability, language, humor, poetry, and storytelling.

​Bring a journal, pen, and curiosity for the unwritten!
