Tangled Bank Writing Center

Tangled Bank Writing Center gathers people of all backgrounds, abilities, and worldviews to write their lives and ideas among the iris flowers, in the bank barn, and next to the vegetable garden. College-curious students will find a joyful and easy space for producing personal essays and college applications, not just as tickets for university entry but as a chance to make meaning, claim power, and find value in a lifetime. 

​

As artificial intelligence reshapes the world, thinking and writing remain critical activities of growth and problem solving. Tangled Bank Writing Center teaches writing not only as a craft, but also as a value. Through the processes of writing, students will learn how thoughts and words can shape, mend, and sustain an ecologically resilient, socially inclusive, and beautiful world.

Tangled Bank Writing Center and Farm offer workshops, retreats, and experiences to students who can't afford college counseling or writing instruction. Through partnerships with under-resourced schools and communities, we hope to build a future of thinkers and problem-solvers.
