“Near” if you are in Delaware, that is.

This spring, I will be participating in three programs at three different venues in the Delaware arts and culture scene:

Event #1:

Mindfulness for Creative Women at Newark Arts Alliance

Friday, February 16

Join us for an exploration of ways to be aware and present in the moments of your life, and how to use that awareness to jump start or enhance your creativity. The class will participate in short meditation, journaling, and visual prompt exercises. The goal is to leave with a plan on how to make each day richer and deeper through the habit and benefits of creative awareness.

Friday, February 16. Time: 7–10pm Ages: 18+ Cost: $35 M |$40 NM Register here.

Event #2

Winter into Spring Writers Workshop at the Judge Morris Estate

Saturday, March 3 – 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Event #3:

                     World War I and America Writing Workshops                              at the Delaware History Museum

March 3 – May 5, 2018

In March through the beginning of May, the Delaware Historical Society will offer six writing workshops to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I. The First State at the Front: World War I and the Road to Victorious Peace exhibition will be open through November, 2018, at the Delaware History Museum in Wilmington. The series will begin on March 3 with an opening event  and the first workshop offered by Dr. Samuel Hoff. I will offer workshops on April 7 and 21. More info to come on my workshops in the weeks ahead.

This workshop series is offered through the Library of America’s World War I and America program,  a “two-year initiative that aims to bring veterans and their families together with the general public to explore the continuing relevance of the war by reading, discussing, and sharing insights into the writings of Americans who experienced it firsthand.” The program is offered with support from the National Endowment for the Humanities.
