This is NOW! The Community Guide to NOW

A Community Guide to The Nature of Words

A Publication to Help the Central Oregon community use The Nature of Words Programs

All of The Nature of Words (NOW) events and programs share the same goal: to assist youth and adults with their writing skills and increase awareness of the literary arts. This is NOW! provides a recap of all the ways the community can put The Nature of Words to work on behalf of students, schools, alternative education programs and adults.

Those opportunities include:

The annual literary festival held the first week of November

NOW's Words Without Walls - the creative-writing-in-the-schools programs

The Storefront Project - creative writing classes for youth and adults in NOW's Literary Arts Center
