The Archive: Mining the Past to Write Today
Wednesday, Aug 27th 7:00-8:30pm
This generative writing workshop will focus on using archival material as an entry point into a story: either fiction or nonfiction. Participants will: read excerpts from authors using archival material in their writing, view artifacts from archives (either their own or ones supplied for viewing), and search for an entry point into their next story. Participants will have the chance to share their work at class close. All levels of writers are welcome.
“Salt House” Rerelease at ReRead Books

Originally published in 1934, "Salt House" tells the story of a group of young artists and writers who spend their summers in the dunes of Provincetown, in Cape Cod. Come learn about this rediscovered author from Allison Bass-Riccio and the group of Cheshire Academy students who contributed to the research and archival work.
