The Writing Centre at Elizabeth’s
a place where writers and readers gather and learn.
The Writing Centre at Elizabeth’s is a space for NE Ohio’s storytellers, journalers, poets, and curious minds to gather, learn, and grow. Through workshops, readings, and community events, we celebrate the power of writing to connect and transform.
Everything we offer centers the voices and work of marginalized writers, teachers, and thinkers, those whose stories have too often been overlooked or pushed aside.
We believe writing is a way to reclaim space, build community, and imagine more just futures. And we’re here to support that work, one word at a time.
