49 Alaska Writing Center has a home at 415 L Street, aka "Raven Place" (next to Snow City Cafe).
The lease was signed today and repairs and improvements begin tomorrow. We promise plenty more news and photos, of course. For now: here's to a great writing community, great neighbors (have I mentioned Snow City?), and one of the most beautiful springtimes I can remember.
Only two slots remain!
