Library to Host Intergenerational Creative Writing Workshop

The Tompkins County Public Library will host “Every Picture Tells a Story,” a creative writing workshop led by Irene (Zee) Zahava, Sunday, November 14th from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM in the Thaler/Howell Programming Room.

This workshop offers an opportunity for children, teens and adults ages 9 to 99 to write together and share their work in an encouraging and supportive environment. Participants will create stories, poems, or memoir pieces in response to a variety of visual images.

There is no charge for the program; however, advance registration is greatly appreciated. To register, or for more information, contact Zahava at (607) 273-4675 or zee@twcny.rr.com.

Zahava, local author, editor and anthology writer, is the director of Emma’s Writing Center in downtown Ithaca, and manages the Women’s Community Building Library under the auspices of the Durland Alternatives Library at Cornell University.

This workshop is made possible by gifts from Carrie Shearer and Suzanne Spitz to the Tompkins County Public Library Foundation.
