Creative Patina is a school for the curious and creative. We design and deliver workshops that will stretch participants’ creativity in a supportive and enthusiastic environment. 

Summer 2026 Creative Patina Workshops

All workshop times are Eastern time, and all are held on Zoom.

Reparation Scholarships: Two full scholarships for BIPOC are available on a first-come, first-served basis for each workshop and series. These scholarships are our acknowledgement that it takes extra time and energy to navigate the systemic racism in the creative writing and publishing industry. The scholarships are meant as reparation, not as an assumption of financial need. If you are interested in a scholarship, please email creativepatina@gmail.com to let us know.

To register: We hope you will join us for one or more of our workshops. To sign up,please complete this form and send payment via Zelle (joywag@yahoo.com) or Venmo (@beverly-ArmyWilliams).

All workshops will be recorded, and the recordings will be available for one month after the workshop’s date.

Do you have a list of creative goals for the summer but worry that you’ll spend more time weeding your garden then tending to your creativity? This workshop is designed for creatives of all kinds (writers, artists, academics) who want to turn summer goals into a manageable plan. Join us to learn how to create a personal creativity syllabus that maps out your summer goals as you create a roadmap for a mindful, productive, and fun summer of creativity.
