In this workshop, we’ll define personal essays, and distinguish them from short stories. Examples of essay and short story collections will be shared, and students will get a chance to brainstorm some ideas they are interested in exploring in their writing (sharing those ideas with the class will be optional.) This workshop is for anyone at any stage of writing, whether you have a draft and are unsure of what it could be, or are just beginning your personal writing journey. Students will walk away from this workshop with a clear understanding of essays and stories, and will have a few of their own ideas to work on in the future.

You’ll leave with a clearer vision, renewed motivation, and tools to keep you moving forward throughout the year. San Diego Writers, Ink on Facebook / Instagram

The group exhibition features UC San Diego Visual Arts MFA students in their final year. Participating artists: Jamil Baldwin, Rahul Basu, Sophia Cleary, Walker Hewitt, Izzai Martinez Angulo, Aambr Newsome, erika roos, Andrew Wharton The impulse to find meaning in the way an object or image is displayed or housed within a framing structure or device, speaks of our capacity to envision something as whole, in order to understand its context and connect with it. By intervening the frame itself, or that which contains, holds, or supports their images, the artists in this exhibition approach image- and object-making by courageously reversing the value-system of the gaze and reflecting it back acknowledging its implicit performativity. Working across film/video, painting, photography, and sculpture, the cohort’s individual conceptual practices seize the function of the frame to make whole and heal the hauntings of the layered detritus that remains after ritual and life itself.
