Recipes and Memories: A Grief Writing Workshop

Recipes and Memories: A Writing Workshop Facilitated by Amy Lyles Wilson

Food is about more than nutrition. It’s about memory and experience and connection. It’s oatmeal cookies on your grandmother’s front porch. Muffins made with blueberries from the family farm. Your younger sister who refused to eat the cranberry relish at Thanksgiving. These food-based memories serve to unite us with our past. Join us as we write together in a supportive and encouraging environment to share stories about food, family, and friends. You need not consider yourself a “real writer” to join us. This is not about critique; it’s about community.

Thanks to the generosity of our donors, this workshop is provided free of charge. Pre-registration is required. Light lunch included!

Amy Lyles Wilson, M.A., M.T.S., is a writer, teacher, and workshop leader who believes it is the sharing of our stories that saves us. A former Alive Hospice employee and volunteer, she uses writing to help people process their grief. You can learn more about her here: www.amylyleswilson.com.
