About this plan
If you like writing or want to start, this plan in Bogotá is for you. (Paréntesis) is a free creative writing lab held at Biblioteca Pública Manuel Zapata Olivella in El Tintal. The June cycle invites you to write from the libraries you live in, the ones you dream about, and the ones you keep in memory.
During the session you will take part in creation, reading, and editing exercises that place libraries at the center as spaces of memory, fiction, and resistance. The goal is to see writing as a way to archive experiences and open new ways of telling the world. It is a space to ask yourself what kind of library you are and how you would order your own memories.
What to expect
- Free creative writing lab
- Libraries as spaces of fiction
- Creation, reading, and editing exercises
- A space to write from memory
Who it's for
