Write Around Portland provides high-quality, participant-centered, creative writing workshops. Most of our workshops run for ten weeks, two hours per week.
The workshop curriculum focuses on experiential learning, generating new writing and building on the writers’ strengths. Workshop participants write stories, poems, memoirs, letters and essays while experimenting with imagery, character development, dialogue and early-draft revision. To build community through writing, our workshops are facilitated by extensively-trained volunteers who write and share alongside participants through a series of freewrites and positive, strength-based feedback.
Learn more about the variety of workshops we offer: Traditional Writing Workshops, Prompt at Powell’s, Writing Workshops at HOTLIPS Pizza, and now a Bi-Weekly Online Writing Workshop and a Bi-Monthly BIPOC Online Writing Workshop.
