Wednesday Night Creative Writing Group (Main)
Writers of all experience levels are invited to join a casual, peer-supported writing group.

The group reads several pieces each month, sharing feedback and constructive criticism in a supportive and inclusive environment. We may practice in-class writing exercises and read samples of published writing as time allows.
Registration is required.
