Writing Away the Stigma Reading & Conversation

Writing Away the Stigma combines a series of free writing workshops and fellowships, a funded editorial fellowship, and public readings and events designed to help demonstrate that true stories can counteract the dangerous and shameful stigma surrounding mental illness.

In observance of Mental Health Month, we will be hosting a series of free events during May. We hope you’ll join us at one or more of the following events:

12:30 p.m. Brief readings from Writing Away the Stigma fellows will be followed by a discussion and conversation about the role of creative writing in fostering mental health. Light refreshments will be served. 

This event is FREE and open to the public.
