Winter Landscape by Wassily Kandinsky, 1909 (Saint Petersburg, Hermitage Museum)

Experience the power of reflective writing guided by the founding instructor of the National Gallery of Art’s popular Writing Salon, Mary Hall Surface. Surface is a teaching artist, playwright, theatre director and museum educator. She presents workshops nationwide in creative writing and drama as a Kennedy Center teaching artist and was a faculty member at Harvard’s Project Zero Classroom.

Experience new ways to contemplate the gifts of winter inspired by the vibrant Winter Landscape by Wassily Kandinsky, an artist who embraced the transcendent power of color. Designed for writers of all levels, and for the curious, the workshop invites close observation of artwork and inner reflection through writing. These reflections can become creative fertile ground for memoir, poetry, and more.

The workshop has a limited enrollment to maximize interaction among the instructor and students.
