The After School
At Beyond Baroque (681 Venice Blvd, Venice, CA 90291)
Director: Ryka Aoki
Assistant Director: Catherine Chen

A monthly work space and test platform for writers who are self-identified queers and people of color. Our goal is to develop your writing projects that subvert or repurpose how literature is made and read. By doing so, we hope to foster modes of writing that creatively respond to expectations, limitations, and exclusions of the literary machine.
