Are you a seasoned playwright looking for that spark to start a new play? Are you someone who has never tried playwriting but wants to explore? Are you a writer of another discipline looking to stretch your literary skills?

Join local artist and educator Kori Alston on June 22 at 4:00 PM ET at the Berkshire Athenaeum for this free 90-minute COMMUNITY WORKS workshop.
