The beauty of creative nonfiction is the discovery of what our memories have to tell us.

In this class we will talk about different types of creative nonfiction--what it is and what it isn't--different ways to play with structure, and tools to get started. We'll go through examples of the form then try our hand at it through the use of prompts.

This workshop is presented in partnership with the Indiana Writers Center. Check out other writing workshops at library branches this fall!

About the branch

The Broad Ripple community has enjoyed library service at various sites since 1930. The first stand-alone library opened in 1949 adjacent to School No. 80 and continued at that location until a larger branch opened in Broad Ripple Park in 1986. Facing a need for continued growth, the Glendale Branch was constructed in 2000 in Glendale Mall and became the country’s first full-service library located in a major shopping mall. 

In 2024, a new 24,800 square-foot Branch located at the site of the former John Strange Elementary School opened. The move into this new space began the next chapter of service to the vibrant Glendale community.
