This creative writing workshop builds on the world-renowned expertise of the University of East Anglia’s Creative Writing Department which launched the careers of many celebrated authors such as Kazuo Ishiguro. Hosted by the Department of English and American Studies of Palacký University Olomouc, the workshop will give you the opportunity to develop your creative writing skills in the charming baroque city of Olomouc.

This five-day creative writing residency, organized between 22 and 26 May, 2023, is open to interested applicants from all Aurora Universities. The program will focus on developing your creative writing skills in English through a series of workshops and collaborative exercises together with other students from across Europe. In the evening, a social program will be organized, and on Friday the 26th you will have the opportunity to participate in the Aurora Student Conference in Olomouc, where you can meet even more students from Aurora Universities. A more detailed program will be announced soon

Applying is simple! If you are interested to participate, send an email Tereza Lyckova (tereza.lyckova@upol.cz). 4 ECTS credits can be earned upon successful completion of the program. The deadline for registration is March 19, 2023!
