Sometimes it can feel like our creative wells run dry, especially in difficult times. That is why it’s so important to be intentional about refreshing our sources of inspiration and ideas..
The Whole Artist Series events are designed around that intention, filling the creative well. Each event will be held at a unique Houston location, chosen for its artistic or natural beauty, where attendees will spend an hour filling up the well and writing followed by a time of sharing, either sharing writing generated during the experience, sharing about the experience itself, or just sharing in a cup of coffee and the community energy.

Art in the A.M. notsuoH bar
INSTRUCTOR: Writespace Volunteers
TIME: Saturday, February 22 · 10:30am - 12pm CST PRICE: Free for Writespace members; Nonmembers $5.00 LOCATION: notsuoH bar 314 Main Street Houston, TX 77002 Join us at notsuoH bar to check out the art and oddities of the first two floors before we have a time for generative writing and socialization in the third floor Dome. The first thing to know about notsuoH is that it's name is Houston backwards. The second thing to know is that the bar's owner Jim Pirtle is a well-known performance artist who has travelled the country to bring back wild and wooly decor for notsuoH. Through the years the three floors of the bar have changed again and again, and it will never stop! Accessibility: The first floor of notsuoH is handicap accessible, but to get to the third floor may prove difficult for visitors with mobility issues. |
