Hugo Writing Classes are at the heart of programming at Richard Hugo House. We believe that people learn more about the world when they investigate it through the written word. Our curriculum stresses writing as both a craft and a method of inquiry. Our students range from eight to eighty and come from a variety of backgrounds and life experiences—what they all have in common is a love for writing and words. For writers of all ages, we offer classes based on the inquiry method of teaching, which is student-centered. Students ask questions that are meaningful to them, and which do not necessarily have easy answers; through their writing, they generate new work that may provide some insight into their subject. We also offer reading seminars on books and authors that span genres and generations. In all our classes, taught by well-known and emerging teachers and writers, we hope to open spaces where new ideas thrive and reach their fullest potential and promote habits to sustain writing and reading over a lifetime.
