The VONA/VOICES Summer Workshop is
co sponsored by the
MFA in Writing Program and
the
English Department
at the University of San Francisco
I feel like I have a community now because of
this experience. I can see myself in the
writing world/writing life, something I
haven't really been able to see. I feel
supported and part of a community.
Participant, 2008
Great 2008 Workshop!
Stay tuned for our Tenth
Year extravaganza!
I definitely feel that my experience reflected the
VONA mission. I felt a sense of community there
that I have never felt at any other class or
workshop. There was an incredible atmosphere of
warmth and friendliness at every step.
