Our friend William Baer writes to remind us that it’s that time of year again: The St. Robert Southwell Institute is taking applications for this summer’s installment of its annual creative writing workshop. This year, it’s from June 1 to June 11 at the Carmel Retreat House in Mahwah, New Jersey.
Here’s an article about the institute . The purpose of the workshop—which is on playwriting, this year—is to encourage a small group of interested, post-baccalaureate Catholics (ages 21-30) to develop their talents in creative writing from a traditional Catholic point of view. Each accepted participant will receive a Southwell Scholarship covering all costs, including room and board, except for travel expenses to and from the Retreat House. The application deadline is April 1.
