Our week-long summer camps, for young people in 4th-12th grades, combine the art of writing and other modes of artistic enrichment to enhance self-esteem and build skills in creative self-expression.
Theme: Tell About It: Writing the Stories of Your Life
“Instructions for living a life. Pay attention. Be astonished. Tell about it.” ~Mary Oliver
Taking what we have learned from the pandemic, we will transform that knowledge to craft our own stories, histories, and boundaries through WWf(a)C practices. We will explore our own identities and learn about how to grow amid a community of diverse, empowered writers. We will watch and listen to powerful young activists as they face the challenges of growing up and learn how we can all support each other.
Topics:
Taking care of yourself amid the pandemic
Exploring Identities: Yours and More
Standing on Your Own Ground
Building Your Boundaries
Our week-long summer camps, for young people in 4th-12th grades, combine the art of writing and other modes of artistic enrichment to enhance self-esteem and build skills in creative self-expression. Programs are designed to help strengthen participants’ authentic voices, develop their ability to speak out through writing and community-building, and deepen their belief in their own creative intelligence.
Our camps are open to young people of marginalized genders, including young women, non-binary folks, and trans youth of all genders.
