If you’re ready to dip your toes into the storytelling experience or brush off skills you haven’t exercised in some time, start here. Instructor Akwi Nji launches the series with a generative workshop focused on the foundational steps of mining for and crafting a personal narrative story to be told on stage. 

In this three hour generative workshop, participants will engage in exercises to help identify a story and then draft their own 3- to 5-minute personal story utilizing Akwi’s suggested “key elements” to engage a live audience.

In this class we will explore Ingram Spark’s platform and Kindle Direct. We will learn the steps for setting up meta-data for a book along with pricing.

Alcohol ink is a medium for folks who never tried painting as well as the seasoned artist. It is a class where the students can just relax and discover the beauty, motion and flow of the inks. Students will learn basic alcohol ink techniques and then will have a chance to experiment with the inks to create their own colorful artworks. Paintings will be on square tiles and Yupo paper.

The paper lantern is fun to make and give. It folds to fit into an envelope and it also doubles as a table decoration. You may add a tea-light to illuminate the center.

In this class we will explore the ISBN, Title Page, Copyright, Library of Congress Registration for self-publishers, Summary, Acknowledgment, and overall layout.
