stay to practiceDescription
Iranti (to remember) Writing Workshop was born out of conversations between Noor and Korede who in the thick of winter craved spaces to write, especially with each other. Come fall in writing once more.
Write, rewrite, practice, edit, and chat with us on April 26, at 317 Yesler Way, Pioneer Square, Seattle WA, 98104, from 6-8pm.
In the thick of winter Noor and I (Korede) talked about how we craved spaces to write, especially with each other. We wanted to fall in writing once more and this workshop is the result of our conversations. “Iranti” in Yoruba means “to remember”, which is at the center of our invitation to you. Practice or talk to us about your craft. We want to hear what drives and moves you towards your craft. We will bring a curated collection of inspiration that helps us sustain our creative practice (a poet we love, an album we listen to on repeat, the content creators we are obsessed with, art that made us want to make art (yes, queen Rama ), flowers that made us feel humane, etc).
