August 15, 2025, Adrian, Michigan – If you would like to try your hand at writing, have been writing for years, or fall in between, you are welcome to come to Weber Center’s next Writing Workshop, Reckoning, from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. ET Saturday, September 20, 2025, in person or via Zoom.
Creative writing could be helpful at this time in our history as we strive to understand our differences and make headway in accepting the beauty of differences.
