Yallah! Muslims: Gather. Write. Repeat is a generative writing workshop for self-identifying Muslim artists to join together in a fun, supportive, and imaginative community space—let’s dream big and get to know each other. Each session will begin with a group check-in, followed by a series of fresh and playful generative free-writing prompts (all original), alternated with optional sharing and group connection. It’s a no-judgment zone—the focus is creativity and joy! “The birds are free from the cage; the cage is empty of the birds.” — Jalal al-Din Rumi, translated by Nader Khalili
