Craft in community: Readings From Ampersand
Location: Back Gallery Ampersand volume 1 is the culmination of The Peepul Press’ inaugural craft workshop on poetry and prose. These workshops championed diverse young writers, helping them hone their creative expression through mentorship from seasoned professionals in a safe, supportive creative space and community-building opportunities. Volume 1 is a showcase of the poetry and prose produced by our writers, and a celebration of what flourishes when young people can be themselves, free from the pressure to conform or perform.
