LIFE WRITING WORKSHOPS
Life writing encompasses an array of methods for recounting life stories, ranging from traditional biographies and autobiographies to modern mediums like blogs and social media posts. It also includes personal narratives in various forms such as letters, diaries, memoirs, and even oral testimonies and eye witness accounts, transforming real-life experiences into literary expressions.
At the heart of the Family Script, lies a deep appreciation for the art of storytelling. Thus, we organize Life Writing Workshops where we invite individuals to preserve their memories, ensuring that they are not lost to the passage of time.
During these workshops, our focus is on both preserving memories and exploring creative ways to present them, whether through text, imagery, or a combination of both. Participants engage in activities such as curating personal timelines and compiling photographic descriptions that evoke vivid memories associated with each image. Some sessions delve into pivotal moments in our lives, encouraging participants to reflect on the significance of these milestones.
In a world where change is constant and permanence is fleeting, our workshops serve as a space for individuals to slow down and connect with their life stories in a meaningful way. Each session, typically lasting two hours, is designed with simple yet engaging activities tailored to participants aged 12 and above.
