Creative Writing

Whether you’ve always dreamed of writing a book, enjoy journaling, or simply have stories waiting to be told, Creative Writing is a welcoming place to explore your creativity. Led by Chicago author Paul Barile, this relaxed and encouraging gathering offers inspiration, writing prompts, discussion, and guidance to help you develop your own unique voice.

Writers of all experience levels are welcome—bring a notebook, a laptop, or just your imagination! Whether you’re working on fiction, memoir, poetry, or something entirely your own, you’ll find support, feedback, and community as you write alongside others.
