2nd Tiwé Listwa Writing Retreat

We are currently early in the planning stages for the second edition of our three-day writing retreat where novice authors become grounded in the art, craft, energy and science of storytelling, learning from subject matter experts in a series of interactive sessions.

The inaugural Tiwé Listwa writing retreat in 2025 was exceedingly well-received by participants and commended by facilitators, several of whom have advocated strongly for the activity to become a staple on Saint Lucia’s creative arts calendar.

To make this a reality, Listwa Collective will need community support. The first retreat was funded by an award from the Commonwealth Foundation, and we are now seeking the ideal partner to help us usher a new cohort of literary voices into a community of collaboration, learning, and creative expression.
