Uncorked Narratives
"Uncork" the stories hidden in your senses by combining social wine tasting and creative writing. In this one-of-a-kind workshop, you'll taste several seasonal wines and enjoy an array of accompanying snacks and bites, while allowing the aroma, taste, textures, and sights of your surroundings to transport you to specific memories. On this sensory journey, each sip of wine invites you to explore and reconnect with emotions and experiences from your past.
We'll start the workshop with a grounding moment to connect to the space and each other. Then, we'll complete several challenging yet empowering writing prompts and journaling sessions, all while sipping delicious wines. We'll conclude with one final prompt, where you'll learn to translate the sensations of taste, scent, and texture into vivid narratives.
Whether you're looking to deepen your creative practice or your appreciation of the grape, Uncorked Narratives offers a fun, thought-provoking experience for writers and wine lovers alike to enjoy a new way of storytelling.
No prior writing or wine experience is necessary. Bring a notebook, pen, and a curiosity for flavor and memory.
