At Portland Women Writers,
our passion is to offer a safe environment where women can access their
creative power, express their authentic voices, and co-create a vibrant
and supportive community of women. Our writing workshops provide sacred
space that promotes personal growth, deep healing and the opportunity
to explore and expand consciousness.
Portland Women Writers workshops are based on the premise that everyone can access their authentic voice through the written word and that each of our voices is unique and brilliant.
In workshops, the facilitator provides prompts as springboards into the writing. These prompts encourage participants to go places they may not normally go in their creativity and inspire our writers to develop a powerful relationship with their imagination and inner landscape.
While reading our writing out loud is always optional, writing and sharing in community is one of the things women most enjoy about PWW workshops. Sharing our writing connects us to one another. It reminds us that we are not alone. Listening to other women's stories inspires our own writing. It changes our lives.
Portland Women Writers offers a wide range of workshop themes, days, times and locations to meet the needs of our writing community. We welcome suggestions! It is also important to us to offer workshops that are affordable. If there is a workshop you are interested in but cannot pay the full cost, please contact the facilitator about possible scholarship opportunities.
