Two-day life writing workshop: Arrivals & Departures — The Stories We Tell.

The Fiddlehead invites you to join local writer and MCAF’s ESL Director, Anthazia Kadir, for a two-day life writing workshop: Arrivals & Departures — The Stories We Tell. This workshop, offered in partnership with Word Feast: Fredericton’s Literary Festival, is designed for newcomers to Canada (but is open to others interested) and will provide participants with the creative writing tools to reconcile and proceed with their journeys from one place to another. Through reflecting and reminiscing on the travels that have brought them thus far, participants will learn how to discern and write about these memories using them as launching pads for their continued life journeys. The workshop will be held at the Multicultural Association of Fredericton, 28 Saunders Street, at the following times:

Friday, September 21st, 10am-4pm (lunch will be provided by MCAF)
Saturday, September 22nd, 10am-1pm

Participants will also be invited to present their works, which will be published in booklet form, at an evening reading on November 2nd at UNB’s Alumni Memorial Lounge, 7pm. Light refreshments will be served.

All of these events are free and open to the public. To register, or if you have further inquiries, please contact us at thefiddlehead@gmail.com.
