One-Session Writing Workshops June 15 and 22
Stories, Heritage, and the Moments That Shape Us: A One-Session Writing Workshop with Two Date Options
Join Theresa Chamberland of StoryCatcher Studios for a welcoming one-session writing workshop focused on personal stories, family history, heritage, and the moments that shape our lives. Through guided prompts, participants will write, reflect, and discover what calls out to be written in an encouraging and welcoming atmosphere.
Sometimes the heart of a story begins with one remembered detail, a family voice, a meaningful place, or a moment that still lingers. Come with a story in mind, or simply arrive with curiosity.
No writing experience is required, only a willingness to follow where memory leads. Participants are encouraged to bring whatever writing tools they are most comfortable with – paper and pen, laptop, tablet, etc.

“That’s an incredible story! You should write that down or record it!” This is a statement Theresa has often said to many friends and acquaintances. Humans are full of incredible stories and we love them because they contain our personal experience, perceptions and our histories. Stories and the tellers who share them express a wide variety of unforgettable character, humanity, humor, heartache, and joy that is found everywhere in our life experience. A lifetime of sharing and hearing amazing stories has inspired Theresa to help people record their stories in print and video through her StoryCatcher Studios.
