Witches in the Woods, An Outdoor Writing & Arts Workshop

with Emma Noyes and Sharma Shields

Write fiction and create cut-paper crafts at Riverside State Park with local artists and writers.

Award-winning artist and writer Emma Noyes and Spokane Public Library's Writing Education Specialist Sharma Shields will meet participants at the Bowl & Pitcher Kitchen Shelter at Riverside State Park for an engaging hour of writing prompts and papercutting. 

"Witches in the Woods" workshops are meant to inspire wonder, imagination, and creativity in a woodland setting. It's a chance to engage with the natural world and to engage with our creative self. These workshops happen outdoors throughout the good weather months in Spokane and are open to people of all genders and to people of all writing/artistic abilities.
