Banff Centre: Call for Applications
The Banff Centre: Literary Art Program is calling for applications.
“Most programs are designed and implemented as discrete short-term projects that focus on particular needs of writers or publishing professionals. Through its own publications produced throughout the year, The Banff Centre supports contemporary art, literature, and criticism and explores the development of electronic platforms and new technologies in writing and publishing.” (quote found at http://www.banffcentre.ca/writing/programs/)
Writing With Style and Self-directed Writing Residencies
Writing With Style (Spring)
Program dates: April 19, 2010 – April 24, 2010
Application deadline: February 05, 2010
Writing With Style is a unique opportunity for writers to participate in a week-long workshop at The Banff Centre, a setting for artists that is both inspiring and productive. Whether you have attended many writing workshops or this is your first, Writing With Style will be an intense and transformative experience. Amidst a diverse community of writers, you will encounter new ideas and gain confidence in your own style and voice, while shaping and editing your work-in-progress under the guidance of an experienced writer and editor.
Self-directed Writing Residencies
Set amid the beauty of Canada’s oldest and most renowned national park, The Banff Centre offers an exceptional environment for creativity. Self-directed writing residencies provide time, space, and facilities for individual research, editing, and manuscript development. Writers structure their own time, and are free to maintain privacy or to engage with other artists and activities at The Banff Centre.
