Be Mine (Not Like That) with Rachelle Toarmino
Behind every great crush and bad breakup is the real someone special: the friend who’s had to listen to you gush, fall, and whine.
In this Valentine’s Day workshop, we’ll gather virtually to write passionate—albeit platonic—love poems for our friends. All manner of cringe welcome.
- Youth Writing Workshops at the JBWC are FREE and aimed at young students aged 12–18.
- This workshop is virtual only—attend from home!
- ACCESSIBILITY NOTE: If you have any questions/issues accessing any of these opportunities, please let us know and we will work with you to make sure you can participate.
