Luckily -- writer, producer, and performer, Ana Maria Jomolca, welcomes us back on the stage with the first Writing 360 workshop in May! Reconnect with the spotlight and dabble in creating our own Broadway-worthy re-tellings of our most cherished stories. Find your places, people!
In this workshop, we’ll focus on the technical knowledge and creative direction you need to share your creations and content on various social media platforms with pride.
Work one-to-one with an editor on your piece, ask questions about submission requirements or get technical help with a software or tool you're not sure how to use!

In our last Writing 360 workshop of the year, TV writer, Naomi G. Davis, will share her knowledge of story building, guide us through concepts of how to find ideas and share her experience working on shows like The Endgame, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and The Get Down. Participants will write about a personal experience in their life, then share these memories in small group "writers rooms", where they will collaboratively create the next hit TV show! "Writers room" groups will then share their TV show pitches with Naomi and the other "writers rooms". Join us to discover how your life has the potential to be a story on the screen!
We can't wait to see your work! Please see your respective program homepages in the Community Hub for details.
