STORYLINK is an exclusive networking event to link graduate students in the Creative Writing, Theater, Journalism, Film and Visual Arts departments. This is an opportunity for writers (screenwriters, playwrights, fiction writers & journalists) and directors (theater & film) to meet and spark collaborations on story ideas that can become scripts, plays or films.There is tremendous talent spread through multiple departments at Columbia, and we hope that this event can bring students together and foster long-lasting collaborations both within and also outside the scope of the coursework of each discipline. By RSVP’ing in advance and filling out the RSVP/CreativeProfile Form, we will attempt to connect writers and directors who share similar interests in creative speed-dating sessions. A mixer with food and drinks will follow where dialogues can continue, and also provide a forum to meet writers and directors who you were not paired with in the creative speed-dating sessions.
