“Playshops are summer camp for the soul, full of humor, creativity, joy and poignant moments. Krayna’s a brilliant facilitator of the heart, who supports artistic freedom and exuberant expression with no pressure or critiquing. You’ll go home refreshed after being in the company of others who share a love of words and community.” J.B., Writer & Poet
“Hey, you there! Listen,
and we’ll tell you a story that’ll surprise you!”
