CHICAGO WRITERS HOUSE PROJECT:
The Writers House Project is an investigation into community. We seek to create a hub for literature, offer physical space for writers, and provide artist services and residencies. Our long-term ambition is to acquire a building. In the meantime, we are a mobile endeavor sponsoring programs throughout Chicago and collaborating with existing literary and arts organizations.
