Creative Writing Residency
“This is a chance to engage, practically and intensively, with creative writing, whether for the first time or as part of an existing practice. And to do so in the setting of an art school, a place full of energy and possibility. Thats exciting!”
CREATIVE WRITING RESIDENCY
The Creative Writing Residency at Paris College of Art is a year-long program which uniquely combines academic rigor and focus on writerly craft with an emphasis on innovation and experimentation. Through intensive semester-long reading and writing workshops students build up a varied portfolio of creative writing in the first semester. In the second, they receive one-to-one mentoring and guidance as they develop an individual writing project and are exposed to a range of contemporary practices and special topics through short, one-off workshops led by guest speakers and PCA faculty. The year culminates in a publishing workshop exploring contemporary forms of book-making and distribution in which students collaborate with students and faculty from other PCA departments (communication design, illustration, fine art?) to publish a micro-edition, whether print or web-based, of a sample of their own work.
Students who successfully complete the residency earn a total of 28 undergraduate college credits.
MINIMUM ACADEMIC REQUIREMENTS FOR ADMISSION
The residency is aimed at students aged 18+; formal qualifications are not essential, but prospective students must be able to demonstrate an interest in and commitment to developing their creative writing in a writing sample and/or interview.
