Y-WE Write is made up of three 8-week sessions, as well as a weekend retreat in January at the Mineral School, that encourage, inspire, and challenge participant’s writing practices. Whether you write daily or this is your first time picking up a pen, if you love storytelling and have a willingness to learn, this program is for you. Youth will have the opportunity to strengthen their writing, explore different genres, and get to know some amazing professional writers. Please visit our website for more info.
