Wordspace is a writing studio in Los Angeles (Atwater Village) serving the community with classes, workshop, events, and inspirations. Students have produced novels, plays, screenplays, interactive websites, memoirs, poems and more. AND we just got non-profit status through the EMERGE program. So the first year has been fruitful, exciting, dangerous, and fine. Would love to have you join our celebration.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>The evening starts at 6:00 PM, but there are sign-ups for open slots at 5:30.
