Join us for a creative writing workshop exploring the images and stories of contemporary women featured in the National Portrait Gallery collection. We will use close looking, discussion and guided writing prompts to honor and celebrate writers such as Toni Morrison and Julie Otsuka.
Open to writers of all levels and genres, ages 18 and up.
The Portrait Gallery strives to provide programs that are accessible to all visitors.
