“Inspired by Minneapolis: A Writers on the Town Tour and Workshop”
Meet Rachel Gabriel—local writer and teaching artist—on the Stone Arch Bridge for a walking tour and writing workshop on Saturday, August 22 from 1:00-2:30 P.M. Meet beneath the blue balloon, and bring a notebook, pen or pencil, and your creative curiosity. A $5 registration fee is an investment in the future of The Loft Literary Center. Details at https://www.loft.org/events/40_for_40/
We’ll start with a view of St. Anthony Falls and end at The Mill City Ruins, where we’ll practice the writerly skills of observation and sensory exploration through written words and images.
Whether you leave with a poem or paragraphs, drawings or word fragments, “Inspired by Minneapolis,” is an opportunity to be present to a particular place, and your moment in it.
Children who are inclined to write and draw with a bit of encouragement are welcome to attend.
Minneapolis is home to The Loft Literary Center—the United State’s largest nonprofit center of its kind—which will celebrate its 40th Birthday with 40 writing events over 40 hours, August 21-22, 2015. Registration details and more information.
