Young Writer's Poetry Workshop!

 
    

      The Young Writer's Poetry Workshop is a 6-week program for ages 8-14 that teaches students how to put their thoughts into words through the creative process, while exploring their own ideas and sharing them with others in a safe, fun environment. 

     Students will engage in creative expression through journaling and age-appropriate group exercises, learn public speaking skills, performance skills, and develop self-confidence while learning how to be good listeners and audience members. Each class session will meet for 1 hour, twice weekly.  At the end of the workshop, students will have the opportunity to present a body of finished work to an invited audience of family and friends.
