We're delighted you're here. This week is designed to encourage inquiry, play, and curiosity; to engage you more fully with your writing; and to provide opportunities to build community. Our extraordinary faculty and visiting writers are eager to share their practice and expertise. We hope you’ll be inspired to take risks and go deep. We've created this guidebook to help you get the most out of the week. It includes a program schedule, curriculum details, and contact information. We’ve also included some of our favorite places to eat, drink, and explore on and beyond the UMass campus. At registration you'll receive your schedule with the locations of your workshop and craft sessions. Our staff will be wearing turquoise name badges: we’re here to help you navigate your way through the week. Don’t hesitate to ask us anything. All of us—Juniper staff, guest writers, and participants—bring our varied identities to the Institute. We strive to provide the accountable and accessible spaces necessary for everyone to be able to participate fully in Institute events. This means we are committed to supporting programming in which all members of our community can: • Share, act, and communicate honestly, truthfully and with integrity • Treat one another with dignity, respect and fairness • Be responsible, transparent and accountable for our actions We ask that all members of the Juniper community help us to uphold these values when communicating with one another at the Institute, and when making your selections for readings, presentations, workshops and the open mic. { 6 } { 7 } If you become concerned about a violation of community norms or you feel uncomfortable with another participant or guest writer’s actions, please contact our Director, Jennifer Jacobson, or Managing Director, Betsy Wheeler, in person, by phone, or email. Betsy and Jennifer will also be available from 4–5 pm each afternoon in their offices on the third floor of South College (Betsy: E351; Jennifer: E357). We are invested in making sure that participants and guest writers feel respected and welcome in our space at all times. You are the Juniper community and you are what makes this experience meaningful and memorable. We hope you'll take every opportunity to write and to delight in wild invention. The Juniper Staff { 6 } { 7 } EVENT ACCESS Your lanyard and name badge will give you access to Institute events (workshops, craft sessions, Q&A/round tables, evening readings, and community meals).
