A new Creative Aging Writing Workshop

We’ve teamed up with Queensbury Senior Citizens to host a 6-week writing workshop, led by poet and professor Elaine Handley.

This class is a great starting point for any older adults looking to try creative writing (or looking to get back into it).

“This workshop is a chance for people to gently experience the richness of their lived lives and their imaginative impulses through creative writing. We will explore and play with writing down memories, stories, poems and even dabble in food writing and legacy writing.”

Classes begin on April 12th. Call 518-761-8224 to register.
