No creative writing experience required! Join Community Building Art Works for our monthly community building creative writing workshop in partnership with the Torpedo Factory Art Center. October’s workshop will be led by Susanna Sonnenberg, who is the author of two NYT best-selling memoirs, HER LAST DEATH and SHE MATTERS: A LIFE IN FRIENDSHIPS. Her work has appeared in many magazines, newspapers and anthologies, and she regularly teaches writing workshops in Missoula and elsewhere. She has lived in Missoula for 25 years.
About the series: Led by accomplished authors, these generative workshops focus on the craft of writing as a tool for introspection, communication, and connection. Bring a pen, a notebook, and an open mind! Tickets are free, but we appreciate a donation of $10-$30 to support our programs. Your donation will fund similar workshops at military hospitals.
Light refreshments will be provided. Doors at 6:30 pm; workshop begins promptly at 7 pm.
