Memories, ideas, objects, dreams.
Sparks of light. And dark.
Most completed work—no matter the genre or form—starts with an idea, a scene, a memory or a sensation that has been carried and held, sometimes for years.
Make time to shine a light on what’s been there, just waiting for space on one of your blank pages.
Tuesdays, March 17 - May 5
7pm-9pm.
The Writers Room
This is your opportunity to come paint and travel Italy's magnificent Amalfi Coast with the artist William (Bill) Papaleo. Home base for the Painting Holiday, taking place April 18-24, 2026, will be at Bed & Breakfast 360 in Vietri. Each day we will venture to a different Amalfi Coast location to create, explore and enjoy all that this beautiful region has to offer.
Join Key to the Castle Workshop instructor Pat Dunn and guest instructor Alexandra Soiseth. The faculty for this program have decades of experience shepherding fiction and memoir writers from story idea to full manuscripts and beyond.
We’re returning to Cetara, a quaint and quiet seaside village - away from the hustle and bustle of Amalfi and Positano, but still close enough, just a short ferry ride away, if you decide you need that level of stimulation. Join us May 23 - 30, 2026 for our Signature Key to the Castle Workshop program for writers. Reclaim and nurture your creative voice in a supportive environment with the opportunity to explore painting and other meditative practices to keep the creativity flowing, all while taking in the beauty, charms and flavors of Italy's glorious Amalfi Coast. Friends will be made and gelato will be served. Andiamo!
