The Sundress Academy for the Arts Workshop Series is excited to present a flash fiction workshop series led by Sundress editor Meagan Cass. This generative workshop series raises money for organizations supporting Black Lives in St. Louis. Come to just one, or two, or three, or all four! The second, “Flash Horror,” will take place on Tuesday, July 21st via Zoom from 7-8PM CST. Subsequent workshops will include Flash Fairy Tale (July 28), and a Sundress and StL Works-in-Progress Reading (August 1st).
Admission for this workshop is a receipt of at least a $10 donation to STL Mutual Aid, a network of organizers, healers, artists, community leaders, and every day people coming together to deliver food and supplies, provide financial solidarity, offer emotional support, and connect people to their neighbors. This workshop will be free for Black writers. Find out more and donate at https://stlmutualaid.org/.
