(A kids writing workshop/playshop)
Whether you’re an aspiring poet, budding novelist, or just want to giggle and invent some new jump-rope rhymes, this workshop is for you! Designed for kids (and kids-at-heart) of all ages, especially those daydreamer bookworms and those who like to write, this drop-in style class will give you the opportunity to dip your toes in a variety of literary genres, using play-oriented activities to further develop your unique storyteller’s voice and superpowers of imagination and perception.
*Please bring a sense of curiosity, your favorite notebook and writing utensil if you have them, and anything else that inspires you.
