Art of Writing cultivates and supports the craft of writing at UC Berkeley.
Our seminars, workshops, tutoring programs, and events build a collaborative writing community across the disciplines, and approach writing as a teachable art.
Art of Writing's small, interdisciplinary seminars at Berkeley provide a space where future data scientists, lawyers, engineers, sociologists, artists, and writers sit together and explore how writing intersects with the intellectual worlds they inhabit.
