JOIN US AT “NIA: A RETREAT FOR BLACK WOMEN WRITERS” HOSTED BY 31 EXODUS ARTS COLLECTIVE. JUNE 26 - JUNE 28, 2026
IMAGINE A SPACE DESIGNED FOR YOU… FOR BLACK WOMEN, BY BLACK WOMEN, WITH BLACK ART ADORNING THE WALLS…
This summer, step away from the noise and into a space created just for you.
Join us in Los Angeles for an intimate, three-day writing retreat designed for Black women Christian writers who are ready to rest, create, and reconnect—with God, with their voice, and with one another.
Hosted in a beautiful two-story home, this experience blends intentional writing time with deep community, spiritual renewal, and plenty of downtime.
Over the course of three days, you will:
Write freely and without pressure
Rest your mind, body, and spirit
Build meaningful relationships with other Black women writers
Be poured into creatively and spiritually
Enjoy moments of laughter, beauty, and ease
WHAT TO EXPECT
Dedicated, uninterrupted writing sessions
Spirit-led reflection and encouragement
Beach time to breathe, reset, and be filled up
A shared outing to Roscoe’s Chicken & Waffles
Nourishing, home-cooked meals prepared by a private chef
A peaceful, beautifully designed space to rest and create
Come ready to write.
Come ready to rest.
Come ready to be held in community.
God has a plan for your writing. Let’s make space for it.
