Tender Tales: A Writing Workshop with Emilly Prado

Stories live within our bodies, persist within our bones— some stories are old, passed down through many generations, while others are new or, perhaps, yet to be born. Join us on August 8th for ✨ Tender Tales ✨ a three hour generative workshop led by Emilly Prado. This workshop is for women, trans, and nonbinary people who are Black, Indigenous, or people of color interested in telling stories. Using writing and food as a catalyst for storytelling, we will mine memories and explore creative writing exercises that evoke the sensory —without judgment and with community.
