About the Event

Thursday, Feb. 2
6-7 PM ET

virtual event; open to all mentees, mentors & alumni

What are the words that you use to describe yourself? What words do others use to describe you?

Join us for an interactive conversation about the ways we create community and celebrate nuance as storytellers. We’ll think about the labels we embrace, the identities we are forced into, and the power we have as artists to define our identities through our work.

In particular, we’ll consider the identities of Girls Write Now’s community and how we can create an environment that showcases each writer as a unique individual with their own stories to tell.

Date February 2, 2023
Time 6:00 PM – 7:00 PM EST
