F.A.F.O- Paper in Fire (Creative writing circle)

You are invited to be a part of our creative writing circle in Room 203 at the Old Central School!

We invite writers of all ages and abilities to join us for Paper in Fire, a community writing circle.

No need to RSVP, just bring your notebook and an open heart! Village artists will suggest writing prompts – we’ll have time to write quietly inside Old Central School – and we’ll come back together and share (If you want to!) over a simple soup supper.
