Hello! You are welcome to join our two-day online symposium “Bringing Creative Writing into the Community” on 5-6 December 2022, hosted by the Creative and Professional Writing Programme (CPW) in the Department of Humanities and Creative Writing (HMW) at Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) .

This event will explore how English and Chinese-language creative writing practices can impact marginalized communities outside the academy.
