Weekly in-person workshops

Weekly during the semester on campus! Location, time and topics are updated weekly via our discord.​

Every week our writing workshop facilitators run an in-person 2 hour creative writing workshop on Unimelb campus! It is a fantastic way to connect with fellow writers and make some friends.

​

Partly discussion, partly writing exercises, the workshops are a way to work on your writing in a collaborative, inclusive environment.
