Library and FLIC Partner for Writing Workshops

The Tompkins County Public Library and the Finger Lakes Independence Center have partnered for the return of the popular “Topic Workshop” series Thursdays from September 6 through October 11 from 2:30 to 4:30 in the Library’s BorgWarner Community Room.

Launched in 2011, the “Topic Workshop” uses reading, writing and conversation to understand a specific theme.  This year’s theme is “value,” and participants will learn step-by-step processes for writing poems, short stories and personal essays that express their views on the theme and discuss works that relate to “value” published by authors with disabilities.

These workshops are free and open to the public and will be facilitated by Steve Weed.  Individuals with and without disabilities are encouraged to discover how reading, writing and conversation help build self-awareness.

To register, or for more information, contact Jeff Boles at (607) 272-2433, flic2310@yahoo.com or Weed at (607) 275-9598, stevensweed@yahoo.com.
