Is your creative writing energy boiling over? Or has it become stale and boring? In this one week intensive workshop, writers ages 10-16 are invited to explore writing and reading practices that can help our poetry and fiction take shape. We will read together, write together, investigate our own identities and the world around us over five mornings in late July. Young writers of any genre are welcome and no experience is necessary. However, a willingness to experiment and connect with other writers is essential!

This program is free to students through a generous grant from the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
The workshop is limited to 12 students, so please register soon!
