The Creative Writer
with Holly Huzar
April 18, 2026
This immersive writing workshop is designed to spark your imagination and invite your stories onto the page through simple yet powerful art and writing practices. Using a playful mix of prompts, collage, and guided exercises, you’ll explore new ways to access creativity, develop ideas, and move past blocks in a supportive, inspiring environment.
Over the course of this one-day experience, you’ll work with visual expression to find and embody a muse, experiment with writing prompts and creative tools, and use a Storyteller’s Oracle Deck to build rich characters and explore plot in unexpected ways. This workshop is open to everyone, from seasoned writers to those just beginning their creative journey. No prior writing or art experience is needed – only curiosity and a willingness to play.
