Creative Writing

Our creative writing program began in July of 2024. The first class, which still meets weekly, was a writing practice, from prompts, called the Midweek Muse. We also offer a poetry class which includes a printmaking element, Poetry In Print, and as of January 2025, we offer the Foundations of Creative Writing which teaches the students how to develop a character, plot, etc. Art History is also included in our Creative Writing Department. In these classes, students learn about the history of art and artists including looking up works of art and discussing the ideas and topics of the subject.  We currently employ four instructors in this department.
