Writers Across Oceans Founder Karla Brundage has organized multiple poetry exchanges across continents. From the first West Oakland to West Africa Exchange, she has brought poets together from Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria, Hawai’i, California and more.
Writers Across Oceans invites writers to our first ever writers’ retreat “Writers Across Oceans: A Healing Session” in Waimea, Hawai’i. This event offers an opportunity for creation, fellowship, reflection, relaxation, and daydreaming amidst beautiful surroundings.
A journal dedicated to amplifying diverse voices, fostering critical discourse, and celebrating the rich tapestry of global arts and ideas.
This initiative reflects our commitment to advancing literary and cultural excellence, and to supporting bold, transformative work that engages with the complexity of our times. Tar Baby offers a platform for emerging and established writers, scholars, and artists to engage with urgent social questions and innovative creative expressions.
