Our Words Our Voices: An Anthology by the writers of Nathaniel Gadsden’s Writers Wordshop

Lunden McClain,Daniel Snowen,Jasmira Hunter

Nathaniel Gadsden’s Writers Wordshop a 501©(3) organization began as an idea to bring a ‘people’s poetry venue to the Harrisburg area. A chance meeting with Mim Warden, founder of the People Place Arts Center, lead to the formation of a wonderful relationship with her organization and the birth of Nathaniel Gadsden’s Writers Wordshop.The name Writers Wordshop (which was supposed to be Writers Workshop) was actually a mistake on Mim’s part, while she was completing an application to the National Endowment on the Arts. The name Wordshop stuck with us and we never let it go. As I was in the process of incorporating the Writers Wordshop, I discovered that there are other organizations name The Writers Wordshop. On the advice from a good friend, I simply added my name, and our organization was firmly imprinted on the fabric of the Harrisburg area arts scene.The Writers Wordshop currently has a dynamic Advisory Board and wonderful relationships with Mid-Town Scholar Bookstore, which provides space for our weekly Open Poetry Reading Series, and the Harrisburg Police Athletic League. We also enjoy incredible partnerships with the State Museum of Pennsylvania, which provides us with the use of their venue six times a year to sponsor free programs to the community, and Harrisburg Mall, which teams with us to sponsor a great Pre-Kwanzaa Festival that the whole community embraces.This Anthology represents the heart of Nathaniel Gadsden’s Writers Wordshop. The writings in this collection span over 43 years of personal inspiration, wisdom, insight, and investment of the human spirit.
