The Art of Not Being Good: Creating Space for Authenticity

In this keynote address for the Amherst Writers & Artists,  we’ll explore the art of teaching writing. How do we create an environment for creative practice in which people feel safe enough to discover and share their most vulnerable, open-hearted, authentic selves? How do we nurture a creative community that instills a deep sense of belonging? What might we tell each other if we knew the other wouldn’t look away?

In this one-hour keynote, join poet, teacher and performer Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer as she invites you to think about and practice the skills necessary for leading writing groups that invite participants to show up exactly as they are.
