Wordplay Writing Lab with Carey

Date: January 27, 2025
Time: 10:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.
Schedule: 4th Tuesday of every month
Location: Port Perry Church of the Ascension

It all begins with the playwright. Wordplay Writing Lab with Carey is a welcoming, creative space to explore playwriting and creative writing through guided exercises designed to strengthen your unique creative voice.

Whether you’re an experienced writer or simply curious about how playwrights develop their work, this lab offers time to write, share, and connect in a supportive group environment. The focus is on writing and creative exploration, not on completing a finished play.

Writing is a powerful form of self-expression and an important part of personal well-being. When time and group comfort allow, participants are invited to share works in progress and engage in thoughtful discussions about plays and playwrights.

No previous writing or acting experience is required. Drop in when you can and make space for creativity in your week.
