Nittany Valley Writers Network: Meeting and Movie Night

Join us for a screening of "Writing Down the River." This exhilarating 1999 documentary of a 10-day rafting trip through the Grand Canyon offers the perfect stimulus for the New Year! Join Linda Ellerbee (journalist & cancer survivor), Barbara Earl Thomas (painter), Ruth Kirk (naturalist), Denise Chávez (novelist & playwright), and other creative women as they confront their fears, challenge their preconceptions, and write about their impressions of life, nature, and the journey. Movie is 55 minutes, followed by a discussion about nature writing or whatever strikes our fancy.
