Creative Writing Workshop Facilitator

About the Host

I'm incredibly excited about the opportunity to join your culturist program, as it aligns with programs I've offered for over 13 years in Switzerland, the U.S., and throughout Europe. I have offered my creative writing workshops both in person and online, centered on the Amherst Writers and Artists' Method. This method treats every workshop participant as a valuable creator, regardless of background, confidence level, or experience. The New York Writers' Coalition trained me to lead these workshops after I attended them for years and found them transformative. My workshops employ creative writing practices (generative writing with prompts) to achieve the following for participants: 1) Build creative confidence, 2) Identify individual strengths and unique voice, 3) Create bonds with other participants, 4) Fine-tune listening skills, 5) Improve communication skills, 6) Develop writing skills, 7) Energize! Here is a link to more information about the workshops: https://www.amyaveschallenger.com/workshops As a writer and painter, I have been considering offering the same workshop model, using painting exploration. My workshops are for writers and artists of all levels and are perfect for corporate retreats, community building, vacation exploration, and meditation retreats. Participants describe them as wonderfully therapeutic. In addition to my workshops, I work as a freelance illustrator, writer, and fine artist, having raised three children in Switzerland. Thank you for considering my interest in your wonderful program!
