Scholarship Opportunity
River Heron Writers’ Workshops is offering two scholarships to the Creative Writing workshop to two writers or poets who identify as underserved, that is, those who, without assistance, would otherwise not be able to access a writing workshop.
Writers and poets who identify as such are encouraged to complete an application and submit between November 1 and December 15, 2024. Recipient(s) will be notified by December 20, 2024.
If selected, this scholarship may be used for the Winter 2025 First Draft Generator: A Creative Writing workshop. Should the session not be available, the selected recipient(s) may apply the workshop toward a future Creative Writing offering. The upcoming session begins January 15 and meets weekly on Wednesdays, 2 PM - 4 PM (ET) on Zoom for six weeks.
Applicant must be available during the time the workshop is offered. Scholarship may not be applied to a different workshop.
After the completion of the workshop, the scholarship recipients will be required to write a brief statement on how the workshop impacted their writing or their writing path.
This year’s scholarships are donated in support of poetry and creative writing in memory of Mark Wisse.
