VORTEXT is Hedgebrook’s weekend salon at the famed Whidbey Institute, led by renowned women writers. This year, VORTEXT will take place on Friday, May 20 through Sunday, May 22.

The program, now in its fifth year, gives writers the opportunity to connect in diverse and powerful small-group workshops. Writers also enjoy dynamic keynotes and discussions about opportunities and challenges for women who write, as well as several open mics over the course of the weekend. Join us to share meals, conversation and community in a stunningly beautiful setting.

This year’s teachers are Natalie Baszile, Carole DeSanti, Ruth Ozeki, Victoria Redel, Rahna Reiko Rizzuto, Dani Shapiro and Hannah Tinti. Register today at http://www.hedgebrook.org/vortext-wlm.
