OCAD University’s Creative Writing program is a hands-on, studio-based program about writing as artistic creation. Unlike any other creative writing program in Ontario, the program enables students to hone their craft while exploring multiple art and design practices. Collaborative by nature, the program’s transdisciplinary and transcultural approach enriches imaginations, broadens perspectives and helps to develop each individual writer’s voice. The Creative Writing program includes the study of living literary culture and literary art practices and production, and emphasizes the practice, craft and production of spoken, written, visual and verbal texts as well as experimental language forms that exist both inside and outside established genres. They welcome ‘attitude’ translated on the page and off, through performance texts and other media.

Onsite Gallery is generously supported by The Delaney Family.
