Mission Statement
Clarion West Writers Workshop is a nonprofit literary organization based in Seattle, Washington. Our mission is to support emerging and underrepresented voices by providing writers with world-class instruction to empower their creation of wild and amazing worlds. Through conversation and public engagement, we bring those voices to an ever-expanding community.
About This Cause
For over 40 years, Clarion West has been held in Seattle, WA. Our program was founded on the belief that writers from diverse backgrounds need an opportunity to be heard – and to experiment with new forms of storytelling. Writers are crucial to today’s conversations because they inspire future generations of thoughtful readers, thinkers, and leaders. In 2020, Clarion West quickly moved to providing online writing programs. Altogether, Clarion West held 112 online classes and workshops for 1,500 unique participants, including 79 youth between 14-18. A sample of the types of classes offered and our instructors can be found on our online class page here: https://www.clarionwest.org/workshops/online-workshops/. Our outreach programs also moved online. All our readings and events were held free and live streamed via YouTube with over 2,200 combined views to date. Our streaming videos are available on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1L6XTsKu3H3LYJAxK4LS5A.
