Write at the Stanley: A Generative Writing Workshop is back for the Spring Semester!

Join us monthly to generate new creative writing inspired by works in the Stanley collection. Each session will be led by a different talented writer from our area, who will be offering a new prompt and a new approach to ekphrastic writing (writing inspired by visual art). Bring your own notebook and pencil or computer and leave with the beginning of a newly written piece.

Co-sponsored by Iowa City Poetry. Teen and adult writers in all genres are welcome.

Write at the Stanley meets every fourth Sunday of the month. Space is limited, so we encourage you to reserve your spot by clicking the dates below:

January 26 | Barbara Price 
February 23 | Akwi Nji
March 23
April 27 | Tracie Morris
