The Sister Maria Cordis Richey Center for the Humanities and Creative Arts and the Department of English & IDS at Georgian Court University invite you to a one day summer writing retreat on Tuesday, June 24th from 9:00 AM - 1:00 PM in the Mansion. We are leaning into gilded age glamour and luddite sensibilities to turn off our devices, take in our surroundings, tune into our projects, and attune with our fellow writers. This retreat blends craft talk and goal setting with contemplative practices and creative arts to support authors on and off the page.
The retreat is FREE for Georgian Court students, staff, faculty, and alum. GCU folks can also bring a friend! Come ready to incubate a new project, build momentum for a work in progress, or polish and package a current manuscript: where ever you are, we are here--come, let's write! Registration is limited to the first 20 participants. RSVP by June 20th.
Join Dr. Pamela Rader and Dr. Paul Cappucci in their annual Dose of Poetry walkabout. Take in the beautiful gardens and landscape of Georgian Court University with this poet's eye tour of our gilded campus. We will start in the library on the main floor.
