Expanding Capacity for Joy Writing Workshop
Writers Collective of Canada believes that every person has innate creative genius—an authentic voice. It exists regardless of prior writing experience or formal education. Every life is abundant to inspire powerful writing and art. Illuminating those stories creates positive personal transformation. Every voice deserves to be heard.
Join in writing-as-therapy sessions where writers share what they've written as a form of expression and listeners provide positive feedback. This is not a writing improvement program; please attend our Kelowna Writer's Group if you're interested in improving your craft.
Registration is required.
