Kaleidoscope Writing Workshop!
Queer Ancestors Project and Still Here SF present:
Kaleidoscope, a free in-person creative writing workshop
Kaleidoscope is a creative space for transgender, queer, lesbian, gay, bisexual, gender nonconforming, questioning, and intersex people, ages 18-26, to explore the lives and stories of our queer/trans ancestors. Over 8 weeks, we’ll build community in workshops led by Still Here SF queer/trans BIPOC artists, express ourselves in multiple writing genres, support each other’s creative processes, and connect to those who came before. The workshop will culminate in a public reading and participants will receive a $1000 stipend upon completion!
