Workshops for artists and writers

Every year we hold two or three workshops – in creative writing, painting and print making. If you would like advance notice, please contact us and we’ll make sure you hear about the next event. A favorite is the Creative Writing Retreat with Joan Rosier-Jones every year in May or early June. Ideas seem to fill the air over this weekend, as writers work on projects ranging from novels to short stories to non-fiction, guided and inspired by one of the country’s top creative writing tutors, novelist Joan Rosier-Jones. Accommodation is subsidized by The Portage for a very affordable package for writers, so early bookings are highly recommended!
