About Xpressions Writing Workshops
Through Xpressions, we offer free public workshops for our Cleveland community, fostering interactive, engaging, and thoughtful discussions. We practice writing and performance as we educate, empower, and inspire one another through art.
Xpressions Community Anthology
The Sparrow's Fortune is beginning work on a community chapbook, an anthology of work from participants such as yourself! This initial chapbook will include poems, prose, short stories, and letters we've written together. How can you get involved? Submit a poem or piece of writing that you've written at a workshop!
