WRITING WORKSHOPS.

The Ed Factory’s writing workshops are small, live online groups for collective writing and inquiry. Participants work with narrative practice, documentary materials, and shared prompts to examine experience, perception, and social conditions through language. Workshops support work already underway or the beginning of new pieces through writing and discussion.

SEMINARS.

Seminars examine cultural life, institutions, and social experience through reading, listening, discussion, and creative production. Participants engage critical texts and multimedia while producing original work that explores how power, history, and perception shape everyday life.

WRITING SUPPORT.

Individual sessions bring listening, dialogue, and writing together to guide projects, applications, and major decisions about next steps. Work often focuses on essays, research, oral history projects, or long-form writing.

The Teachers Institute is a fellowship for educators who want to work at the intersection of writing, cultural study, and classroom practice. Fellows meet across the year with visiting scholars, develop classroom projects, and participate in a community of educators engaged in public intellectual work.
