Ursula K. Le Guin’s Portland, Oregon Home Will Become a Writers Residency

I recently read an article posted on AP NEWS'S website titled,
Ursula K. Le Guin’s home will become a writers residency by Hillel Italie. In the article, I learned the following information:

Downes-Le Guin, who also serves as his mother’s literary executor, now hopes to give contemporary authors access to her old writing space. Literary Arts, a community nonprofit based in Portland, Oregon, announced Monday that Le Guin’s family had donated their three-story house for what will become the Ursula K. Le Guin Writers Residency.

No date has been set for when the residency will begin. Literary Arts has launched a fundraising campaign for maintaining the house and for operating an office in town.

I love this idea of using Ms. Le Guin's former residence in Portland, Oregon as the Ursula K. Le Guin Writers Residency! Hopefully, the residency program will start soon.
