Step outside the traditional room and let the natural world ignite your creative process. Join facilitator Julia Thie for an immersive evening workshop designed to help you tune into your surroundings and translate the outdoor environment onto the page.

What to Expect:

• Guided prompts focusing on imagery, rhythm, and place

• Dedicated quiet time for individual writing and reflection

• Optional opportunities to share work in a supportive setting

• Practical techniques for using nature to overcome creative blocks

What to Bring:

• A notebook or journal and your favorite writing utensil
