Into the Body, Out of the Mind
Writing is a solitary, sedentary act—but how can we harness the wisdom and flow of our bodies to innovate in how we use our words? This generative, multidisciplinary workshop will draw from unexpected sources to encourage us to think about language as a physical force. You need absolutely zero drawing skills for this class, but bring blank (not lined!) paper and a pencil (other materials welcome: bring colored pencils, pens, or watercolors if you have them). Come prepared to explore your senses, move your body, and surprise yourself. Be aware that some of the work samples used in this class will touch on heavy themes.

This is a ticketed event. Tickets ($35 + fees) are on sale now!

Purchase Tessa Hulls' books via our official festival bookseller Auntie's Bookstore!

Survey feedback is crucial to our program in many ways, including helping us obtain critical grant funding. Please take a few minutes to complete our official festival survey after you've attended any of our events! Feel free to also leave us feedback here on Sched on individual events, but it really helps us immensely when people fill out our official survey!
