If you want to be a writer or used to be a writer, join this workshop and get going! In each 90-minute class, you’ll consider a prompt, answer questions about it to develop your idea, and create a serious piece of writing. Then the class will share what we’ve written and rewrite. Taught by experienced writing teachers Bob Boone and Mark Larson. Registration required.

Red Hill Birding will lead small groups in a bird-watching expedition through Glencoe’s Turnbull Woods. With any luck we’ll spot resident woodland birds like woodpeckers, blue jays, and red-tailed hawks and migrating birds such as the golden-crowned kinglet, white-throated sparrow, and even some sandhill cranes. Registration required.
