Goldwater Hospital Writing Workshop Fellowships
 |
NYU Graduate Creative Writing Program students may apply for
several year-long teaching fellowships at Roosevelt Island’s Goldwater Hospital,
a public facility for the severely physically challenged. Every Tuesday
afternoon, Goldwater Fellows conduct a creative writing workshop for a group of
twelve to twenty residents, meet with them in individual tutorials, and assist
in transcribing their work. Fellows also help publish the Golden Writers’
Anthology at the end of each semester and coordinate readings of their
students’ work. The Goldwater Writing Project was founded in 1986 by Jean
Kennedy Smith, Rose Styron, and Sharon Olds. It has become a vital part of the
NYU community and of the residential community at Coler-Goldwater Memorial
Hospital.
