This is an in-person workshop that takes place at Czech Center Museum Houston

Wish you were here: photography and writing.
Houston writer Sarah Gajkowski-Hill hosts a series of poetry workshops in the CCMH galleries. Gajkowski-Hill leads each session with thoughtful writing prompts that respond to specific exhibitions of works in Prague Hall. Participants have the opportunity to ask writing questions of the presenter and engage in creative communal collaboration with the group. Inspired by the work of Clarice Marik Snokhous, participants will explore writing from photographs. No previous writing experience is necessary.
