When we liberate ourselves from the expectation that we must have all things figured out, we enter a sanctuary of empathy. ~Sonya Renee Taylor

Working with material from Sonya Renee Taylor’s book, The Body is Not an Apology, we will dream of building a world that works for everyone by starting with loving every facet of ourselves.

We will use Women Writing practices to create a community of writers. Each day offers quiet space to dream and write. We will share our writing in small and large groups. Our focus is on writing but each day will include craft projects and other nourishing activities.

All summer camps use the art of writing and other modes of artistic expression to enhance self-esteem and build skills in creative self-expression. Programs are designed to help strengthen young people’s authentic voices, develop their ability to speak out through writing and direct interaction, and deepen their belief in the own creative intelligence.
