Small, disconnected, and incomplete–this is how personal memories often come to us. But how do we take these moments and turn them into something meaningful? In micro memoir, a nonfiction piece is told in 200 words or less and is a perfect way to capture these tiny stories.

In this generative four-week class, we’ll explore micro memoir and how adding a visual component can add depth to personal stories. We will study writers who use micro memoir and incorporate visual elements, then we will delve into our own memories, learn to identify powerful moments, and explore them through micro memoir and simple visual art exercises.
