The Culture of Creativity: Writing Workshop is a free virtual workshop series sponsored by the Critical Language Scholarship Alumni Society (CLSAS). The workshops are for Gilman and CLS Alumni and are intended to promote culturally sensitive and internationally informed creative writing.
Each workshop in the series (with the exception of the open mic night) will be approximately two hours in length and will include a panelist discussion, Q&A, writing exercises, and an optional time to share work and receive feedback. The virtual open mic night is open to all performances, readings, acts, etc., less than five minutes in length. We highly encourage any and all languages (English translation preferred, but not required)!
