Memoirs offer a powerful avenue for healing through the exploration and sharing of poignant memories. Within the supportive environment of the ongoing group class, students will gain valuable writing tools and form lasting bonds with fellow writers.

Liz Evans leads the writing group and helps to ignite your creative spark. Come Mondays from 530-730pm at 110 South 7th Street, Unit B, Hotchkiss for thought-provoking prompts and constructive critique to help shape their narrative. Join us and discover the immense healing power of transforming your life stories into art.

There is no better time to start healing your past than the present. Be prepared to embark on a journey of self-discovery and unleash the healing potential that resides within your unique story. Together, we will uncover the transformative power of memoir writing and embrace the cathartic release from sharing our truths with others.
