The workshop is the first effort of the Anchorage Neighborhood Writing Project (ANWP) and is part of ENGAGE Week: Urban in Alaska sponsored by the UAA Center for Community Engagement and Learning (CCEL). According to Eric's blog post on 49 Writers:
We are looking for collaborators across mediums to build a compendium ofAnchorage lore. We are looking for writing, photography, mapping, drawing, painting, and other modes of art. The long-term goal of ANWP is to combine writing and other media into a community atlas that tells the stories of how we live in Anchorage.
These three organizers have particular interests and expertise that make them uniquely qualified for this community project. Check out Eric's post for further detailed information about the workshop and about their backgrounds.
