WRITE ON - Home

WRITE ON - Home offers Kind Fools’ intuitive writing WRITE ON workshops using the theme of “home” with communities that have a special relationship with the concept/experience of home. These workshops provide a supportive and creative environment for an exploration of our individual and collective relationship with the idea, feeling, and experience of home.

The goal of this project is to build just relationships (and a common sense of community) among people across the city, to foster confidence in self-expression and writing, and to build paths of mutual respect and understanding. Putting the comfort and emotional safety of our participants first, we seek to discover what these writers create from their lived experience. What universal truths and commonalities arise among each group’s writings? What is unique in each person or groups’ relationship with home?
