Writing Circle Monday sessions are sponsored by Stoddard Cancer Center as part of the Charlie Cutler Healing and Wellness Program and inspired by the Amherst Writers & Artists method, which believes that everyone is a writer.
Each session participants create a safe space, and then write together for timed intervals to writing prompts. Writing prompts inspire stories from participants’ lives. After each timed-writing session, participants will have the opportunity to read their stories to the group, which is healing on many levels.
Cancer patients and survivors are welcome to sign up for one to eight sessions. Registration is required, as each session will cap at 10 writers. For questions or to register, call (515) 241-8505 or email Gina Mandernach at Unity Point at [email protected].
