A poet in workshop

The Winter Getaway is well known for its challenging and supportive workshops led by accomplished writers and artists. Small workshop sizes ensure that you will receive personal feedback on your work.

“What a great opportunity this is to escape into the world of writing for a long weekend, to work with award-winning poets and writers, to meet and network with other fellow writers and to just have a ripping good time. Kudos to everyone involved for another excellent Winter Getaway!”
~ Bruce, Cherry Hill, NJ

We are all so busy in our daily lives–working, caregiving for young and old, surviving our daily challenges–that to have an uninterrupted respite to write and speak only of the craft of writing for a whole weekend is bliss. I truly enjoyed the Winter Getaway and its supportive community." – Karen, Highland Park, NJ
