Immersive classes are capped at 15-20 students to allow individualized attention in a small morning cohort, then in the afternoons and evenings we mingle with the entire Glen community for a rich buffet of sessions!
Every attendee at the Glen Workshop has access to:
- An immersive morning class. You’ll choose one class for the week, participating in 5 weekday sessions that meet from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. Morning classes are kept small, so you develop close ties and dive deep into your subject. For many attendees, their immersive morning cohort is the heart of the Glen. (If you prefer having mornings free to write, paint, hike, rest, or explore, choose the self-directed option and save $300.)
- Weekday afternoon and evening sessions, including readings, interviews, craft talks, and more from our illustrious faculty, open mic sessions to share your work, morning chapel, and free time for rest, connection, or local excursions. These p.m. sessions are enjoyed with the entire Glen community, allowing you to mingle with friends attending other morning classes.
- Experience the gorgeous Pacific Northwest summer. The Glen is held just outside downtown Seattle on an intimate college campus. Whether you're an outdoor-loving writer craving quiet and peace, or an active extrovert seeking the benefits of an urban location, there's something for everyone!
- Optional housing and meal plans.
