I’ll be joining this new residency as faculty along with Brian Turner, Nick Flynn, & Ananda Lima.
HVWC is proud to announce a literary residency for eight poets and eight prose writers on the beautiful campus of The Pocantico Center of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund in Tarrytown, NY from June 2 to June 6, 2025. Confirmed faculty are award-winning, nationally acclaimed authors: Nick Flynn, Chen Chen, Brian Turner, and Ananda Lima.
Each student will take two two-hour workshops a day in their genre from 9:30-11:30 am and 2:00-4:00 pm and spend the rest of the time writing and exploring the grounds. Students will live onsite in well-appointed guest houses during the residency. Students will share bedrooms, bathrooms, living, and dining spaces. The Pocantico Center will provide a grocery stipend for breakfasts and lunches, as well as catered family-style dinners. The residency is open to all poets and prose writers, including historically underrepresented artists, such as those who identify as Black, Indigenous, people of color, LGBTQ+, women, nonbinary, or disabled. Please check the HVWC website for details.
