SUMMARY:Creative Voices: A 6-Week Writing Program for Women with ADHD with Amy Reyer
DESCRIPTION:This 6-week course meets for 1.75 hours\, from 6:00-7:45 p.m.\, on 4/16\, 4/23\, 4/30\, 5/7\, 5/14\, and 5/21\, in-person at the Hudson Valley Writers Center.  \nQuestions or wondering if it’s a fit? Reach out to Amy at amy.reyer@reyerec.com. \nCreative Voices is a co-creative environment for women with ADHD—where structure meets spontaneity and your ideas finally have room to run. Whether you’re drawn to memoir\, essay\, fiction\, or poetry\, this class offers an encouraging\, judgment-free space to explore your voice and follow your creative flow wherever it leads. \nAlong the way\, you’ll also get practical\, research-informed insights about how ADHD shows up in women—often in ways that are overlooked or misunderstood. We’ll gently reframe old stories of “not enough” and invite you to understand your mind in a more compassionate\, nuanced way\, while learning how to harness the strengths of an ADHD brain: originality\, intuition\, and out-of-the-box thinking. \nWe’ll focus on storytelling\, confidence\, and connection—with a rhythm that works for the ADHD mind: lively discussions\, short bursts of writing\, and plenty of laughter along the way. You’ll leave each session with progress you can feel and a community that truly gets you. \nBIO: Amy Reyer is a longtime HVWC student currently writing a memoir about her early childhood with undiagnosed ADHD in the 1970s. The project inspired her to create a writing workshop for women with similar experiences. She holds a master’s degree from Yale and a Ph.D. in American Studies from George Washington University and is an ICF-certified executive coach and mindfulness educator. Over the past decade\, she has researched the history of child psychiatry and the misdiagnosis of girls with ADHD. Previously\, she produced women’s programming for major media outlets\, including Discovery Communications\, XM Satellite Radio\, The Ellen DeGeneres Show\, Oprah/Harpo\, Real Simple\, and More magazine.

SUMMARY:The Tempest Unpacked
DESCRIPTION:River’s Edge Theatre Co. presents a bold\, imaginative re-telling of The Tempest with only two actors.  \nTwo people are forced to leave their home. While they are packing and digging through old memories they rediscover a dusty old copy of their favorite play\, The Tempest. Through use of found props\, improvised costumes\, and makeshift scenery magic ensues. Follow these characters through this epic story as they encounter the all too common themes of betrayal\, displacement\, revenge\, and love. Part heartfelt family story\, part imaginative storytelling explosion\, this intimate\, fast-paced\, delightfully scrappy production reminds us that theatre’s greatest magic comes from people who dare to make something out of nothing. \nRecommended for ages 8 and up.
