See http://sackettworkshop.com/index.html for upcoming classes and to register, or email founder, director and PS29 parent Julia Fierro at sackettworkshop (at) gmail.com

Each workshop includes opportunities to have work critiqued in class, feedback from the instructor and class participants, as well as a conference with the instructor.

All Sackett Street workshops are taught in the comfort of instructor’s homes and are limited to eight writers to insure individual attention.

The Sackett Street Writers’ Workshop was founded in 2002 in Carroll Gardens, and what began as eight writers meeting in the cramped kitchen of a brownstone has developed into a creative home for over 1700 short-story writers, novelists, memoirists and essayists.

Sackett Street instructors are professional writers, teachers and editors, who have earned MFA degrees from prestigious writing programs and have taught at major universities. 

Today, Sackett Street writers live in all boroughs of New York City and more than half return to the workshops for multiple sessions. Alumni have been accepted at top MFA Creative Writing programs and writing conferences, have won fellowships and awards, and have completed and published short fiction collections, novels, and memoirs.
