In the Time of Butterflies: Making Art & Writing - Bear Valley Branch

Lighthouse Writers Workshop is partnering with Denver Public Library and Denver Arts & Venues to bring the NEA Big Read to town this fall!

Lighthouse Writers Workshop, in partnership with Denver Arts & Venues and the Denver Public Library, invites you to #ReadWithUs this fall! As part of the NEA Big Read program, we'll be hosting a citywide discussion based on In the Time of the Butterflies by Julia Alvarez, a novel about family, finding your voice, and fighting injustice.

We've partnered with arts organizations across the city to deliver a full slate of events, including book discussions, writing workshops, art-making sessions, live performances, and more. Copies of the book will be available at select locations throughout the city, as well as local bookstores and libraries.

Create art and writing in response to the book’s themes, with guided prompts by instructors from Art Students League of Denver and Lighthouse Writers Workshop. Free.
