Hugo House opens the literary world to everyone who loves books or has a drive to write.

Join Samar Abulhassan on Tuesday, June 2 at 6 PM PT for a free online creative writing circle designed to help you shake off perfectionism and fall back in love with making things.

Each session features new prompts and approaches. Push past what you think writing should be and plunge into the strange, chaotic, and ephemeral to discover what it can be. Most of all, it's a chance to give yourself—and your fellow writers—permission to create without expectation.

Leave with new work, fresh energy, and a renewed sense of joy and pleasure in creating.

Open to adults of all ages.

The first time I stepped through the doors of Hugo House, I felt at home. There is no analogue to Hugo House in other cities I’ve lived: a community center meant specifically for writers.”
