Conference Workshops

Bear River 2012:  May 31- June 4, 2012

Registration for Bear River 2012 will begin January 23.

Welcome to Bear River 2012. Our faculty will offer workshops in fiction, poetry, and memoir as well as in essay-writing. Bear River workshops are distinguished by their emphasis on new work -- You will see this reflected in the workshop descriptions. You should make a first, second and third choice of faculty for your workshop and note them for when you proceed to the registration page.  We will do our best to accommodate your first choice. (You will work with the same faculty member for the three days of workshops.)
