Memoir Writing – Active Arts

Finding your voice, telling your story: Introduction to Memoir

This course will give you an opportunity to explore the range of possibilities in writing your life. Over four weeks, we will explore the different styles, formats and frames to help you find the perfect voice for your story. This is a generative workshop, so participants will have an opportunity to produce work in class, read excerpts from a range of memoirs, and share work and ideas with fellow writers. In addition to the writing they produce, all participants will leave with a basic plan for their Memoir. This is a class for everyone. No writing experience is necessary, and participants do not need to have an idea for a story.

Held in the Book Bar at Accidental Theatre from 2pm to 4pm - We’ll see you there!
