Queerlit Writing Workshop with Jutta Reichelt

Queerlit Writing Workshop with Jutta Reichelt
 
On 03/29 | 06/07 | 08/23 | 10/25/2026

Join the queer writing workshop!

Far more than many realize, "invisible" normative ideas often limit us. This applies to "proper living" (heteronormativity) as well as to "proper writing."

The four open dates of Queer Writing: Against the Norm! (03/29, 06/07/26, 08/23/26, and 10/25/26, each from 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM) are an invitation to question and subvert these norms and conventions through writing, thereby getting to know writing as a self-empowering and resistant form of expression. There is the possibility to write about a queer alphabet ("Queer from A-Z") or to pursue other (even your own!) impulses through writing. Alongside and after writing, there will be opportunities for discussion and reading aloud, for questions and support. Additionally, there is the opportunity to draw inspiration from the Weserburg itself – including from the works in the collection exhibition "So wie wir sind" (As We Are), Murat Önens "Moving Pile under the Blue Sky" (2022), to Zoe Leonard's queer political manifesto: "I want a president" (1992).
The four open workshop dates will be led by the queer Bremen author Jutta Reichelt (www.juttareichelt.com) and are aimed at all queer individuals, regardless of origin or writing experience. Anyone who enjoys writing and group exchange is welcome!
