MKB Studios
Welcome! Here you will find current and upcoming classes being offered. There are online courses that range from 6-12 weeks. There will also be asynchronous classes in the near future.
The Philosophy
“Workshop” is an outdated term. It implies that art is only produced through labor and that its value is determined solely through economic means.
The idea of the “studio” is to build a community of writers in a setting that is safe and inclusive. It is a space that inspires artistic expression, not one that demands labor for the sake of production.

Enrollment
