Nature Writing Workshop & Reading with Kaethe Schwehn

Join us for a nature writing workshop by writer and poet Kaethe Schwehn. During the workshop we'll use the work of environmental writers and the wildlife surrounding us as inspiration for our own pieces of nature writing. Schwehn will also give a reading of her own work and then invite other workshop participants to share their own creations. Partipants will receive a journal to take home and continue their own creative writing. This workshop is made possible in part by a grant from the Minnesota State Arts board.


Open to ages 15 & up. $20 per person; $15 for members.
Pre-registration is required.
