 writers, the 5th annual Intergenerational Writers Lab (IWL), scheduled to 
 take place March 1 – July 16 2008. Twelve participants will be selected 
 to participate in the literary program, which will involve workshops, 
 public readings, and an anthology publication. IWL workshops will be led by 
 six lead artists: playwright Ricardo Bracho, journalist and music writer 
 Jeff Chang, poet devorah major, journalist Annalee Newitz, poet and 
 essayist Bushra Rehman, and poet Troung Tran . The IWL will include public 
 readings, featuring selected writers, scheduled for March 19, April 23, May 
 21, and July 16, at Kearny Street Workshop and Intersection for the 
 Arts.\n\nThe goals of the IWL program include the following:\n1) to provide 
 twelve local emerging writers with the opportunity to challenge, develop, 
 and expand their writing by working with emerging and established writers 
 in a variety of genres;\n2) to contribute to the development of new 
 literary forms and language that incorporate multiple forms of creative 
 expression;\n3) to provide emerging writers with the opportunity to connect 
 and work with each other and with established writers in the literary 
 world;\n4) to provide the community with an opportunity to engage with new 
 work and new explorations of form and language;\n5) to contribute to the 
 wealth of independent literary publications by publishing a new anthology 
 from KSW Press and Intersection for the Arts that highlights work by 
 exciting new writers committed to exploring new forms and voices.\n\nWe are 
 looking for local (SF Bay Area) emerging writers who wish to develop and 
 expand their writing skills by experimenting with new forms and taking 
 risks in creative expression. Selected participants will participate in 
 nine workshop sessions of three hours duration each (all workshop sessions 
 will take place on Saturday afternoons) and will have the opportunity to 
 attend and participate in the four public events at KSW and Intersection. 
 Writers need not be published, but must demonstrate a consistent pursuit of 
 literary arts and a deep interest in participating in an experimental 
 writing program.\n\nTo apply or for more information, contact KSW
