Room Project is a Space for Women + Non-Binary Writers + Artists


 
 

This is a space for Room Project members, community members, writers + artists to pitch their ideas for workshops, readings, and other events. Give us all the details. We're excited to hear from you.

Here are a few things to keep in mind:

• While Room Project membership is exclusively open to women, nonbinary, and trans folks, our events are open to all gender identities and expressions. In all our work, we seek to amplify BIPOC & LGBTQ+ voices.

• Members receive priority for programming dates and use of the space.

• Don’t be nervous about pitching an idea you may need help developing. We may have contacts, resources or a little experience that can help you manifest your plan. If it’s a good idea, we may be able to run with it.

• Finally, blessed are those who are motivated to promote their programs. Room is here to partner with you, but we expect you to thoughtfully and enthusiastically participate in spreading the word about your event.
