Writers' Centre Kingston (WCK)
Description
The Writing Cultures Group is the home of Writers' Centre Kingston, a literary cultural centre dedicated to the practice research and knowledge exchange of creative writing in all its forms, with an annual programme of events, talks, workshops and festivals.
Each of the dozen special events that make up the annual programme are themed, from Living to Dying, Loving to Hating. The Centre utilises many of Kingston's beautiful and unique venues, such as The Rose Theatre and Dorich House Museum.
The programme brings together some of the finest writers from across the UK and the world, in conversation with the exceptional staff of Kingston University. The understanding of writing is inclusive and innovative, and it is fundamental to the Centre's mission that audiences and participants are a mix of students alongside the considerable local community of writers and literary devotees.
