This month’s Writing Club welcomes independent writer and curator Serubiri Moses, who will facilitate a writing workshop on the theme of “utilizing the epistolary form,” which participants will practice in response to Leandro Katz’s Lunar Sentence II, currently on view in Gallery 205: An Inward Turn. This workshop takes place online via Zoom.

Registration
Register for Writing Club at Home on Monday, November 13, 6:00–7:00 p.m. ET
Writing Club is part of the Artful Practices for Well-Being initiative, in which we seek to offer a space for connectedness and healing through art. In each session, a guest writer will introduce different works of art and offer a series of writing prompts. We offer a calm, supportive, and welcoming environment for anyone interested in writing in response to art in the company of fellow writing enthusiasts. Participants will have the option, but not an obligation, to share some of their new work with others.
