In 2020, at the height of the pandemic restrictions, a group of writers and artists came together on Zoom to take part in a series of workshops under the guidance of Blue Door Art Center Poet-in-Residence Golda Solomon and memoirist and playwright Jacqueline Reason. Based in Yonkers, New York, the workshop soon spread to reach writers across the world and became an essential part of their creative life. For some it was life changing. The artists and writers selected here represent a new beginning of creative energy following dark and difficult times. Most are based in New York City's boroughs, Westchester County and New York State. Others are in Florida, Pennsylvania, California and England. In their individual ways they show that, as the poet and critic Ann van Buren said, "the world needs art more than anything right now."
