What I Learned at 13: An IWD Workshop [In-Person, Toronto)
To celebrate women is to celebrate their stories. This workshop will create a safe, thoughtful space to reflect on our personal stories and what we learned or were taught about what it means to be a woman at pivotal ages throughout our lives (e.g., 6, 13, 21, 30, etc.). Life always makes the best creative inspiration so we will use our reflections to create poetry that honours these stories and the lessons we've learned along the way. This workshop is a celebration of creative expression and play and does not require any previous writing experience to enjoy.
