Aria Dominguez
April 21, 2026

Grapevine Collective is thrilled to be able to offer FREE writing classes with the support of the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council.  These are all intended to be accessible to beginners, and are taught by kind, lovely people—don’t be intimidated! Sign up with a friend or two and start a little writing pod, try writing if you’ve never done any before but have always been interested, or try a new genre if you’re experienced in a different one. Springtime is great season to unleash creativity that may have lain dormant over the winter. Check out Grapevine Collective on Instagram & Facebook for more info or simply sign up below.
