Dave Munsick will use his years of experience in writing songs and stories to help participants find ways to discover and share their writing talents. Class members will create poetry, stories, and song lyrics under Dave's guidance. Those who wish may get assistance in the creation of melodies that fit their words. Participants will focus on the writing style of their choice and create a product to share with a select audience on the last day of class.

Participants will learn to activate and recognize the creative process, explore techniques that assist in finding, creating, and sharing stories, and more!

No prior experience required—just curiosity and a willingness to play!
