Ateles Writing Workshop

Ateles Writing Workshop Light, truth, epiphany, & insight are only found by imperfect people through an imperfect process. We believe:
Your experiences are personal stories.

In ancient Greek, the word ATELES means “imperfect.”

At The Forward Foundation, we view imperfection as an important part of the human condition & see it as an *avenue for strength to shine through* as we lean into a process of growth. Through the creative endeavor of writing, we come to the process as imperfect people; and in that creative process, we can be delighted to find gems of light, trut

h, epiphany, insight, joy, & even healing. Your stories have meaning. Your words matter. Join us if you'd like to:
-harness more creativity in your life
-write something specific
-journal as a therapeutic practice
-outline your goals
-pursue a dream with more intentionality
-further develop your craft
-play some fun word games
-focus in on a specific project, or
-simply process authentically through a pen & some paper

The ATELES Writing Workshop will give you room to
slow down… explore… & creatively catch new inspiration.
