SUMMARY:Humans of Ansche Chesed Presents: How to Compose Your Oral History
DESCRIPTION:As part of our ongoing Humans of Ansche Chesed program (view page 1 and page 2 of our programming here).\n\n4 Wednesday evenings.\n\n6:00-7:30pm OR 7:45-9:15pm November 2\, 9\, and 16.\n\n\n\nAttendance for all four sessions is encouraged!\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWhat makes a memoir compelling to read? What makes a memoir satisfying to write?\n\n \n\nAs part of 5777’s Humans of Ansche Chesed project\, author\, oral historian\, performer\, and AC member Michael Takiff will lead a four-class workshop in memoir writing. Sessions will center on sharing ideas among participants\, with the goal of improving their expressiveness and power. Michael will add his comments on both form and content.\n\n \n\nParticipants may focus on short recollections to be contributed orally to the Humans of AC recorded archive. (Michael will offer coaching on the spoken presentation.) However\, participants will also be encouraged to work on longer pieces.\n\n \n\nMemoirs may relate to AC\, to synagogues\, or to Judaism\, but any topic is fair game. Just keep in mind that the best writing comes from the heart. Personal recollections of people\, places\, and events that are unforgettable to the writer will produce a memoir that is vivid and meaningful to readers and listeners.\n\n\nNo previous memoir-writing experience required.\n\n \n\nEvent is Free but RSVPs are appreciated: HumansOfAC@anschechesed.org
