Freedom

FOR YOUNG WRITERS

As we emerge from quarantine and feel the warming of summer, I’m hosting a writing festival for young people to explore the theme of Freedom.

New and experienced writers ages 10-13 will write stories exploring lived and imagined ideas of freedom. We’ll use improv, games and short exercises to generate ideas and in-class writing to support everyone in finishing a story or two.

Ensemble building is threaded throughout, so that we can build the community, trust and ease we need to make brave art. 

Thursday July 1, 1- 4 pm PST
Friday July 2, 1 - 4 pm PST
Saturday July 3, 9-11am PST

Cost $300.
