This week-long, residential workshop is like no other! Held on a mountain top in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, we offer the serious writer what they are looking for – a valuable learning experience with a top teaching faculty plus a variety of nighttime programs that will touch your hearts and make you laugh.
We have it all – beautiful rooms, delicious meals, landscaped grounds, and fantastic workshops. Each evening, we will either stimulate your mind or provide an atmosphere reminiscent of the fun you enjoyed as a child.
We also offer a Writing Retreat only for those attending the workshop. The all-inclusive price for the Retreat is $315 (June 29 thru July 5th) and the Workshop (July 5th thru July 12) is $560.
Please visit our website at www.wildacres.com and take a picture tour.
We promise you will leave the mountain with a renewed writing vigor – and memories you will never forget.
Small classes (10 students), workshops in AM and PM alternating.
