Event Description
What's your story?
Pen to Paper is a workshop which is a hybrid course combining all different types and mediums of writing. In the past the course has incorporated fiction writing, personal stories, play writing, and poetry. The course focuses on building character, plot, and setting using prompts and exercise as well as taught instruction. Children and teens are encouraged to peruse their own personal favorite medium and pursue a longer piece.
$50.00 per session (2 days)
