Annual Círculo Conference: August 14th, 2021
What's Happening!
The Círculo summer conference is our major annual event. Like last year, the conference takes place online using Zoom. Mark your calendars for Saturday, August 14th, from 10:30 am to 3:00 pm. It'll be a full day of getting to know each other, workshops, and more, concluding with an open mic for all participants. Check back for the schedule and to sign-up in July.
CALL FOR WORKSHOP LEADERS
Each year, our conference offers three or more workshops for participants, and for 2021, we invite proposals on the conference theme, "Poetry and Prose Time Machine." How can we time travel using the written word?
We welcome proposals in any literary genre: poetry, prose, nonfiction, etc., or any combination thereof. Our theme, "Poetry and Prose Time Machine" is meant in a spirit of hope, imaginative fun, and opens the many ways we approach creative writing. Send us something that stimulates the senses and builds community. We hope that workshops will address the Círculo mission of encouraging diverse voices in the creation of multilingual multicultural poetry and prose. In addition, workshops are open to all writers from those just starting their writing journey to published authors.
Propose a 60-minute session.
Deadline: Saturday, June 19th.
Proposal acceptance notification: late June.
Email circulowriters@gmail.com for questions and/or further information.
A year-long Círculo membership is offered to all workshop leaders.
Lead a Workshop
Propose your dream workshop by June 19th. Poetry, prose, genre-specific, all works. We are looking for proposals that encourage diverse voices in the creation of multilingual multicultural poetry and prose. What is your dream workshop and how can you get that going to generate creative writing that rocks our multicultural world? We'll get back to you by the end of June.
