In collaboration with the Museum of Modern Art, AAWW Presents Writing Club at Home with guest writer Kay Ulanday Barrett to facilitate a virtual workshop on wholeness and assemblage. Kay Ulanday Barrett will introduce works of art by Alfonso Ossario and Adrian Piper, share a series of creative writing prompts, and offer the opportunity for writers from around the globe to gather in a calm, supportive, and welcoming environment.

Writing Club is part of the Artful Practices for Well-Being initiative, where we seek to offer a space for connectedness and healing through art.
