Berkshires Writer’s Adventure at Amherst

The Berkshire Writer’s Program is anchored on the campus of Amherst College and features an abundance of focused writing time and exploration of the environs that inspired local writers. Experiential and fun, this program is crafted to sharpen skills, cultivate imagination, and spur creation. It’s the perfect place for both new writers to find their voices and for experienced writers to further develop their skills and concentrate on their work. In addition to visits to Amherst writers’ haunts, students will travel to and write at places like The Mount, Edith Wharton’s famed estate, and Arrowhead, the home of Herman Melville. And, of course, there will be time for hang outs with new friends and summer fun too!
