The Writer’s Block: Featuring Samantha Casseus

Wed, Mar 21 2018 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
$5 – $20

The Writer’s Block** is a writing workshop series hosted and facilitated by Black Venus. This series of monthly workshops is geared towards building community and supporting artists/aspiring writers in their creative process. The workshops will consist of exercises and prompts lead by the host and/or featured community artists (writers, musicians, spoken word poets, etc.)

The March 21st workshop features SAMANTHA CASSEUS, founder and lead organizer of Queens Talk.

The goal of these workshops is three-fold:

To provide space for local individuals and creatives to build their writing practice.
To gather and center the voices of POC living in Roxbury, Mattapan, Dorchester & JP in order to RECLAIM space and actively resist gentrification in Boston.
To offer a space for community building and networking.
This event series is open to aspiring writers and writers of all genre. Please note that this is an anti-oppressive space that centers marginalized voices. Leave your privelege at the door (or in the donations!)

Suggested sliding-scale donation: $5-20 (or give what you can)

Donations accepted at the door via cash or Cash App.
