The Art of Narrative Storytelling (Spring Term 2025)

Participant Testimonials:

We had writing to do with a prompt during class as well as writing assignments to craft over the week. That was helpful to see how different your process was with different time constraints and environments.

Robin is a real gift to Osher. We had an amazing group, shared intimate stories, and were supported by her in a very safe environment. Plus we all progressed in our writing skills!
