Summer Workshops

Weekly prose and poetry workshops have been the core of the Chautauqua Writers' Center for 18 years. Faculty members are selected not only for their national reputations and the quality of their work, but also for their ability to inspire developing writers to grow in their craft. Intimate groups of no more than 12 participants (and up to three non-participating auditors) assure that each voice is heard and that all work receives individual attention.
