This workshop is a summer creative writing program for high school-aged students (ages 14-18) of all gender identities.

Instruction will focus on several genres, including fiction, personal essay, and poetry, and will include both peer workshop and one-on-one feedback from instructors.
Workshops will be held from 1 pm – 4 pm Monday-Thursday, with a special participant open mic and reception on Friday.
