Our online workshop (May 19) previews how The Lab’s upcoming writing retreat in Mexico City (this fall) will ignite amazing creative work for you.
By attending Tuesday's workshop, you'll discover how creatively responding to art can bring out surprises and depth in your writing.
You’’ll get images and prompts that inspire you to go to extraordinary places in your writing that you wouldn’t have thought possible.
We'll also give you a taste of what to expect from The Lab’s 2026 creative retreat September 30 – October 8, 2026 in Mexico City and Valle de Bravo.
The limited space at the retreat (just 16 seats) ensures a personalized, intensely creative experience to all participants. Seats are selling fast.
Tuesday's online session is led by Matthew Clark Davison and Alice LaPlante, co-founders of The Lab and co-authors of The Lab: Experiments in Writing Across Genre (Norton 2025).
Only $5! You’ll get a blast of Matthew and Alice’s unique teaching that brings out the creative best in writers of all levels and genres.
(We would make it free, but more people actually show up when they’ve paid a nominal fee to register.)
