Do you want to block out a day for writing and contemplation? The UCLA Faculty Writing Retreat is your solution. During the retreat, you’ll have the chance to concentrate on your own work in a supportive virtual environment. Whether you’re working on research papers, grant proposals, book chapters, or any other writing project, this retreat is designed to provide uninterrupted time for productivity.
The writing retreat provides a peaceful place for UCLA faculty to write as well as meals; please bring your computer and any other materials you may need to work. If you have an extension cord, please bring it, as power outlets are limited. Also bring some extra clothes for layers, as the space sometimes tend to be cool.
Who may attend: This retreat is for UCLA faculty, post-docs, academic administrators, and lecturers.
If you are attending virtually, we hope you get situated with a beverage and snacks for the day. Those of us attending in person will have a conversation about the writing process over lunch. This conversation is entirely optional.
If you register to attend in person and your plans change, please let us know right away so that we may offer your spot to the waitlist. No-shows will not be granted an in-person spot at future writing retreats.
If you are no longer able to attend in person, please e-mail csw@csw.ucla.edu to let us know.
