Writing with Astrology: A Youth Writing Workshop

How can the alignment of the stars when you were born shape the poem you are writing right now? When writing fiction, how does understanding the traits associated with the signs of your characters affect their actions? During this workshop, we’ll explore the intersection of astrology and creative writing. We’ll share sign-specific prompts and reading recommendations, write creative horoscopes, and let the stars and planets guide us through the creation of new poems, stories, comics, memes, and songs.

468 Washington Street
Buffalo, NY 14203

Tuesday, January 7, 2019 @ 4:30 p.m.–5:30 p.m.
