Colorful characters: a writing workshop with Susanne Reece
Writing is kind of like cooking. Once you know how to work with the ingredients, there’s no stopping you from creating something amazing. One of the most important ingredients in a story is the main character. FRIEDA has stocked the pantry for you to create great characters and stories with the soft sculpture dolls featured in STUFFED, currently on view. In this workshop, you’ll choose one of the characters, and by responding to series of prompts, bring that character to life through writing. Come, have a glass of wine, and cook up a story about one of these colorful characters to contribute to the feast of creativity on view.
