Fairhaven

Join Claire in the kids' section of our Fairhaven location every Tuesday at 11am for a half hour of stories, songs, and movement! 

Meets the 1st and 3rd Wednesdays from 6-7:30pm in the Writer's Corner on the mezzanine level of the bookstore.
This group is for writers of Children's Picture Books who want to grow as writers and receive objective feedback about their material. There will be guidelines for the writer and the reviewers so each person can improve their craft in a safe setting.  A valued group member will produce written work on a regular basis, thoughtfully critique the work of others, and contribute positive energy and insights.

Join us in the Readings Gallery to hear a tale of a Hemingway scholar 's journey into the heart of darkness. A journey that ignites her own confrontation with a haunted past, even as it illuminates the nuanced, but no less frightening, truths of Cuba in its own crisis of identity.

Forgotten Language: Writing Poems About the Natural World with Barbara Bloom

How can we describe and celebrate the natural world in our own writing? The poet W.S. Merwin tells us, "I want to tell what the forests/were like/I will have to speak in a forgotten language." Join this two-part workshop as we write our own nature poems, working toward discovering this forgotten language. Barbara Bloom has an M.A. in Creative Writing from San Francisco State University, has published two books of poetry, and has spent her life in wild and beautiful places.

Instructor: Barbara Bloom. Class meets Saturday, April 8 and 15 from 10:00am-noon (2 sessions), and is $69; click to register. To see the full listing of current Chuckanut Writers classes, click here.
