The Power of Naming during Life Changing Events
This study group will be online
In this memoir workshop we will write about 4 periods of change: Preparing for Attack-from the Cold War to 9/11, the Space Race, the Vietnam War, and the COVID-19 Pandemic. We will discuss how global events generate their own vocabulary, a language we use to define and process our new reality. From new words such as N-95 masks to new realities such as toilet paper shortages, the vocabulary of change has power. The writing prompts will help us explore our memories of these life changing events.
Instructor Diane Nash will lead this study group on Wednesdays from October 14 through November 4.
Pre-registration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the study group will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the first session.
