Join the National Portrait Gallery for an interactive creative writing workshop that explores the exciting stories of expatriate American women artists, performers and cultural innovators in Paris. Participants will gain inspiration from the exhibition “Brilliant Exiles: American Women in Paris, 1900–1939,” which features portraits of Josephine Baker, Isadora Duncan, Zelda Fitzgerald, Loïs Mailou Jones, Edna St. Vincent Millay, Anaïs Nin, Gertrude Stein, Ethel Waters and Anna May Wong.

Through creative writing exercises, we will develop new, experimental texts that blend genres and forms. Open to writers of all levels and genres, ages 18+. Free – Registration Required.
