About the Walk & Write Tour Series
Since 2021, local writer Sherrie Flick has led the popular Walk & Write Tour series for Shiftworks. The summer and fall of 2024 marks the fourth season of this successful program.
Each hour-and-a-half tour traverses city neighborhoods and introduces tour-goers to various walking trails and footpaths. This season includes Flick working with guest writers exploring different neighborhoods and themes.
As participants walk these areas, they will have the opportunity to exercise their creative writing skills, responding to Flick's writing prompts at each tour stop. The writing prompts are unique to each tour route and correspond with its surroundings. Each guest writer will read their work aloud during the program.
All writing abilities are welcome and no previous writing experience is necessary. Please bring paper and a writing implement, wear good walking shoes, and bring your curiosity to environments that may be new to you.
