What Remains: Writing With Grief

​Join us in this intimate workshop led by Saint Trey Wooden. In this workshop, we approach grief as a living relationship, one held through image, memory, silence, ritual, the body, and the ordinary. Centering Black, Brown, queer, and diasporic poetic traditions, the workshop would combine grounding exercises, close reading, guided writing prompts, gentle revision, and optional sharing.

​All writing levels and ages welcome.
