Creative Writing Classes @ Clones Library

As part of the Peace III funded project ‘Hidden Heritage of County Monaghan’, there will be Creative Writing Classes one Monday per month in Clones Library. In these classes, participants will be encouraged to talk and write about experiences of living around the border.  The aim of the workshops is to raise awareness of the extent, nature and value of diversity within our County today.  A wide range of books which are themed around Peace and reconciliation will also be made available to participants. 

January – July 2010: A total of 6 workshops will take place between January and July. The theme of these workshops will be diversity in the community. 

July – December 2010: A further 4 Creative writing groups will take place between July and December.  These workshops will have a focus on producing poetry or prose for the final exhibition.
