Summer Writing Workshop

Have you ever dreamed of writing a novel but did not know where to begin? Or perhaps you have started stories but struggled to bring them to life? This summer, the Haggin Museum invites teen and adult writers of all experience levels to join Writing in Action, a dynamic eight-week workshop that guides you through the foundations of fiction.

Led by writer Matt Abraham, the course explores the heart of storytelling, including character, plot, sentence craft, and scene construction. You will develop your original fiction through hands-on writing exercises, group critiques, and personalized feedback, while also learning how to shape a compelling narrative and prepare your work for potential publication.

This workshop is for teens and adults (ages 16+). No prior writing experience is required. Spaces are limited to ensure personalized feedback and community-building. This course is expected to fill quickly. Do not miss your chance to discover the writer within!
