About this event
Join THE WORD: A Writing Group for Black Women
Discover the power of your voice and connect with a community of like-minded Black women at THE WORD, a unique writing group that meets every week, in blocks of 4. Here, we delve into a range of topics, from the impacts of colonisation to the cultural significance of our hair. This circle was designed as a safe, empowering space where Black women can engage in stimulating conversations and share their writing.
About this Event
We invite you to join us as we work together to produce a compelling collection of stories and writings. These creations will be showcased in early 2025 within some of Haringey's most iconic buildings. Our workshops are structured in 4-week blocks, each focusing on different themes. Feel free to sign up for one or all three workshops to fully explore and express your voice.
Come, be a part of this transformative experience where silenced voices are heard, validated, and celebrated. Let's write, share, and build a powerful community together.
These sessions will be facilitated by:
