The Sancho Panza Literary Society, in residence for 10 day writer’s workshops at Trinity College Dublin each May/June, is now accepting applications for their 2020 Trinity College Dublin workshop!
This year’s sessions will take place from May 25-June 3 and June 5-14. Last year, the workshops had a mix of undergrads, grad students, faculty, and older writers from 17 different colleges, including Williams, Emerson, Washington and Lee, George Mason,Amherst, Colorado, UMass, Penn, Memphis, UConn, and Cal, and Dr. Sean Forbes, the director of UConn’s creative writing program, will once again be returning as a member of the workshop.
The workshop accepts fiction, poetry, and nonfiction submissions and meets on campus each day. Trinity allows the workshop students to stay for about 60 euro per day, which includes breakfast and full maid service. Participants also attend plays at the Abbey and Gate Theatres, travel to the Irish Sea and The Cliffs of Moher, and are invited to the Dublin International Literary Award Ceremony. In 2020, the members of the SPLS workshop will also have a reading event on Trinity’s historic campus.
The program description and sample itinerary can be found of the SPLS summer workshop page.
