Don't write off your Summer - Improve your creative writing skills and connect with other teen authors

Welcome to Creative Writing Camp - a space for teens to explore their creativity and share their work with other teen authors. Throughout the program, we will explore the storywriting process from beginning to end while creating a short story. Through writing practices, targeted editing, and workshop sessions (free-write days where you can get open feedback from other writers), we will work to improve our creative writing skills and learn about the editing process. Those who attend at least 4 sessions of the program will be invited to participate in our Summer Arts Showcase on August 07 to share their final work with an audience of group members, family, friends, and local artists.
