The Saskatchewan Writers’ Guild and our partners at the Global Gathering Place are pleased to announce Peter Hedley as our new facilitator for our Weaving Words workshop series.
Weaving Words is a creative writing workshop series for newcomers to Canada living in Saskatoon that encourages fresh storytelling and culminates in a reading celebration and participants’ stories published on the Global Gathering Place’s and SWG’s websites.
Peter brings enthusiasm, unique ideas, and thoughtful community experience to this role as he works to encourage emerging writers in Saskatoon.
Registration for newcomers interested in the summer series will begin soon. Save the date for August 5, 7, 12, and 14, 2025, from 6:00-9:00 p.m. to be held in-person at the Global Gathering Place (100 5th Ave. N, Saskatoon, SK.)
