Warrior Writers and Rutgers Camden House will host Outside the Wire: Veterans Writing Workshop via Zoom on Saturday, May 21, 1-3pm (EST).

As part of Outside the Wire, a multi-format humanities program presented by the Writers House at Rutgers-Camden and Warrior Writers, veterans and active duty service members are invited to a generative writing workshop, facilitated by leaders from Warrior Writers.  Each year, this partnership has focused on highlighting narratives and experiences of veterans throughout U.S. conflicts. This year, the project's focus is on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on military families.

Veterans and service members of all ages and backgrounds are welcome at this workshop.

Register here.

Warrior Writers will host a Lunch Break Writing Prompt online on Friday, May 20, 12:30-2:30 EDT.  Join Warrior Writers Facilitators Jake and Bob for as little or as long as you want to participate in a casual, generative, creative writing session for veterans and active duty. 

No need to register! Drop in any time during the session.

This is a recurring event on the first and third Friday of every month.
