About
Writing is a way forward that can be deeply therapeutic. It can be a way to express our fears, hopes and joys. It can help us make sense of the world and our place in it. Future historians may look back on the journals, essays and art that ordinary people are creating now to tell the story of life during the Conovirus Pandemic.
Receive prompts, guidance and art supplies in this facilitated workshop for adults 18+ from the Writers Community of York Region: Allison Hannah will direct your writing experience.
Local artist, Mahtab Abdollahi will also be on hand to provide guidance with your artistic expression.

Organizer
Town of Newmarket in partnership with the Writers Community of York Region
The Writers’ Community of York Region is a collective of local authors, poets, and industry professionals who strive to build a supportive and encouraging framework for writers and their craft. Our shared love of literature provides a platform for education, inspiration, and an opportunity to network, connect and celebrate.
Our goal is to engage our fellow writers by increasing public awareness and attendance at our events, and active participation within our online forum. All writers at all stages are welcome. Ultimately, we are in pursuit of being the representing body for literary endeavours in York Region.
