~ A camp for writers ~
Summer Youth Writing Project
Our program is different from “school” writing. Led by professional writers and experienced teacher consultants for the National Writing Project, participants will explore what it is like to be a real writer. Writers are guided through activities that promote creativity and enrich language development. Workshops emerge from the real needs of writers--through participation, students will develop the tools needed to enrich their voice, clarify their message, and help readers gain meaning from their words.
Open to students currently in grades 2-12;
previous attendees may choose to return the summer after high school graduation
