JQY is proud to present the new JQY Writer's 
Group program! 
The purpose of this program is 
to nurture, inspire and coach young writers (or members who just enjoy 
writing) of JQY and the Jewish LGBT community. More importantly, it will
 provide a safe, creative and open-minded environment for members to 
express themselves artistically (beyond the monthly meeting setting).
This program is open to writers of all levels. All you need is an idea!
The
 group will meet bi-monthly at a destination TBD. There is a maximum of 8
 participants per group. Each group cycle will have approximately six 
meetings. At the meetings, members are encouraged to bring something 
they have been working on (or have been wanting to start working on). 
Could be:
o Play
o Film or TV script
o Novel
o Poetry
o Editorial or blog (with intent to publish)
The
 group will be moderated by a program moderator and each member will be 
asked to share a piece of their material. After a member shares material, the other members
 will have time to critique and comment within a positive, nurturing 
safe environment. Within each cycle, there will also be guest artists 
(writers, directors, producers, etc.) invited who will come to speak to 
the group, share their experiences and take questions.
If you are interested in signing up or have any additional questions, please email 
Looking forward to hearing from you.
