Discover how the visual arts can inspire writing through intimate encounters with artwork in the Rubin Museum of Art galleries in this lively workshop Writing Down the Himalayas with Nina Goss. Guided group visits provide participants with insights and impressions to create personal narratives and reflection.
Writing workshop activities include exploring an outstanding collection of Himalayan Asian art through lively discussions and writing exercises. Activities are designed to provide inspiration and encouragement for novice and veteran writers alike. All materials are included. Reservations are required.
“The experiential nature of this workshop allows me to be in the moment…It is also not about Hemingway, it is about me. Very liberating indeed…it is really allowing my writing to go to new places. It is as if you said the magic words that opened the door.”

Nina Goss earned a PhD and MFA at the University of Washington in Seattle. She teaches creative writing at Fordham’s College at Sixty Program and is co-editor of the book, Dylan at Play. She spent immeasurable hours watching her father try on suits in Barney’s, where the Rubin Museum is now located, which taught her the virtues of patience and endurance she now explores aesthetically in the same spot of ground. Karma!
