826michigan has traditionally offered creative writing workshops in multiple spaces in southeast Michigan–in our writing lab on Liberty Street in downtown Ann Arbor, our writing lab on Winder Street in Detroit’s Eastern Market, and in many community partner spaces like the Ypsilanti District Library. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, our workshops are currently held online.
