Have you ever wondered how the place you come from influenced who you are? Or what memories you carry from your ancestors? Or how your personal history impacts your view of the world?
Have you ever wondered how the place you come from influenced who you are? Or what memories you carry from your ancestors? Or how your personal history impacts your view of the world?
Take a day out of your busy life to explore your deeper self and ponder the life you’ve lived so far.
Big Island author Tom Peek encourages you to “Discover the magic power of writing to stimulate the creative regions of your mind and unearth your meatiest memories, highest aspirations, zaniest ideas, and most incandescent insights.”
Join Peek for “Writing for Inner Exploration and Life Reflection” from 9:30 a.m.-4 p.m. Saturday at Volcano Art Center’s Ni‘aulani Campus in Volcano Village.
Peek’s workshop includes fun, offbeat and provocative “wild mind” exercises that provide participants with exploration tools to use in class and on one’s own. The workshop is perfect for journal keepers, bloggers, autobiographers, spiritual seekers, memoir and family history writers, and anyone who simply enjoys writing. No previous writing experience is necessary, just the desire to explore!
Peek, an award-winning novelist, has taught his popular Hawaii workshops since 1991, encouraging hundreds of islanders to write their own journals, blogs, family histories, stories, poems, novels and essays.
The workshop cost is $75 or $65 for VAC members. To register, call the Volcano Art Center at 967-8222 or visit www.volcanoartcenter.org.
