Writing in a Winter Wonderland: Kirjoituspäivät 20&21.2.2025

Writing retreats provide an opportunity for writers to focus on their work while connecting with fellow authors. The Writers' House in Jyväskylä, designed by Wivi Lönn, offers a unique space for this collaborative experience.

The structured retreat operates from 9 am to 4 pm, with a fee of €70 per day plus VAT or €120 for two days. This includes coffee, lunch, a writing resource pack, and entry into an online community where participants can write together every Wednesday morning. A scholarship is available for one participant; interested individuals can inquire via email. The group size is limited to 12 writers to ensure personal interaction.

Participants can choose to attend for one or two days, and accommodation options can be discussed upon request.

This writing retreat is open for anyone seeking to write alongside others in a stunning setting, specifically in Wivi Lönn's architectural gem on Säynätsalo Island.

The day retreat includes lunch and refreshments, along with guidance and writing resources. After the retreat, participants join an online community where they can continue to meet weekly. Interested individuals can contact for details about scholarships. The intimate setting allows for discussions and building relationships among a maximum of 12 writers.
