The Baguio Writers Group (BWG), this year’s recipient of the Gawad Pedro Bucaneg award from the Unyon ng mga Manunulat ng Pilipinas, will hold “Journey to Selfhood: A Creative Journal Workshop” on Nov. 15-17 at the ICM House of Prayer on Recto Road, Baguio City.

 

Workshop facilitators are poets/painters/diarists Merci Javier Dulawan, Babeth Lolarga and Baboo Mondoñedo.

 

The workshop, open to participants from Baguio and outside the summer capital, will teach non-journal keepers how to start one and find the purposes for doing so; make the personal political and political personal; show how a journal or diary can be an outlet for the creative soul; and how to sustain a new habit.

 

The workshop will also demonstrate how to use the new media like blogging or Facebook and up to what extent or limit does one reveal/disclose the self and how to use art as a consoling tool when words do not flow as quickly as one wants to.

 

Fee for Baguio locals is P3,500 including meals and materials; for out of town participants, P5,000 including board and lodging. Slots are limited to 20. To reserve, e-mail Javier-Dulawan at [email protected] or Lolarga at [email protected].

 

Senior citizen discounts will be honored, but IDs must be presented on registration day for BWG’s record purposes.
