Writers’ block can stem from feelings of overwhelm and disempowerment in times of upheaval, but social change begins with how we wield our words. Join LitArts RI for a special edition Writers Block Party, designed to inspire writers to engage with the issues that matter most as citizen writers. Explore the connection between writing and activism through hour-long micro workshops on op-eds, oral and written testimony, flash and hybrid forms, and protest signage. Between sessions, take time to network and brainstorm, write postcards to elected officials, enjoy a potluck lunch, and participate in a closing community discussion on next steps and submissions.
Opt for one workshop, or take four workshops for a discount. All tickets include admission to the day’s opening and closing discussions, participation in the potluck lunch, and time to write in the LitArts RI Creative Workspace between workshops.
