Writing Workshops

The Surviving the Mic Writing Workshop series is designed for survivors of harm. The two-hour workshop will present written and/or performance work that explores the experience, impact and nuances of harm, offer participants a chance to craft new work and a mini-salon at the end of each workshop for the participants to present their work. Our workshops have a priority focus on gender-based violence, though we acknowledge that our experiences as survivors are often intersectional, nuanced, and reflective of the multilayered experience that is humanity.

Monthly, virtual writing workshops are generously supported by the Chicago Alliance Against Sexual Exploitation and happen the third Thursday of every month, from 3-5pm via Zoom. Those interested in participating can join here.

All workshops are supported by an Illinois state-certified crisis counselor.
