Humanities Washington: How to Write a Family Portrait

Tell the stories that have preoccupied, amused, and defined your family for generations.

In this hour-long generative writing workshop, essayist Kristen Millares Young will use guided prompts and discussions to help you plan, write, and revise your family stories. By reflecting on intimate truths, we can redefine how we think about ourselves and our kin, contribute to our communities, and spark vital conversations.

Participants will leave with new pages.
