The Koffler presents a series of free virtual community writing workshops in collaboration with the Writers Collective of Canada (WCC). Facilitated by award-winning poet Alisha Kaplan, a WCC-trained facilitator who is well-versed with the Amherst Writers & Artists Method.
These online workshops provide a safe, brave, and inclusive setting for both new and experienced writers to explore their written voice. Participants will respond to visual cues and prompts inspired by The Synagogue at Babyn Yar exhibition, and will be invited to share their first-draft compositions - in prose or poetry, fiction or nonfiction - in order to receive empowering feedback from their peers. No prior writing experience is required.

August 22: Sacred Places
August 29: Loss & Memory
