Writing Together #4 with the NYCWP and Gateway Recreation Area

February 2, 2021

Last Updated on by Jane Higgins

Who knew, a year ago, when we in the New York City Writing Project started meeting and writing together online, that we would still be doing this? Along with many others, our morale is ebbing and stress is as high as ever. (See this report.) We also have those feelings of never doing enough and of not being able to reach our students. Perhaps you also miss a casual, friendly community with colleagues. If any of this fits for you, we invite you to join teachers from the New York City Writing Project and find some relief and restoration in our own writing this Thursday evening, February 11th at 7:00 PM Eastern.

These past months of pandemic living have reminded us how essential our creativity is for expressing our thoughts and feelings and processing our experiences.  Many of us have found ourselves writing (or thinking of writing).  Many of us have found ourselves spending more time outside enjoying being part of a larger, more natural world of bright sunsets, cool breezes, wintry trees, local birds and animals.

With this in mind, come join the NYC Writing Project and the Gateway National Recreation Area for another session of Writing Together.  We’ll write, share what we wish, and be inspired by nature, our experiences with the world around us, and by our connection with each other.  We hope you can join us! 

When: Thursday, February 11, 2021, 7:00pm
