30th Anniversary Celebrations

This year at Moniack Mhor, we are celebrating three decades of supporting creative writing journeys in all walks of life. As we head into our 30th year, we are excited to continue developing our online courses with the same focus on Moniack Mhor’s warm, supportive environment combined with the expertise of skilled and inspirational writers.

We’ll be sharing stories and marking our anniversary in as many ways as we can, from 17th May 2023 to 16th May 2024. In the meantime, we are delighted to introduce the first events in a new online Masterclass series. We look forward to welcoming you through our virtual doors!
