Lighthouse Writers Workshop holds its annual Young Writers Summer Camp every year for aspiring writers. You can choose between half-day camps and summer intensive camps for middle and high school students.
The half-day camps expose emerging writers to various writing styles and genres. Each group consists of 6-12 students and focuses on a specific topic or genre. For example, some classes cover the basics of fiction and non-fiction writing.
The camps for middle schoolers and high schoolers are week-long events where students can learn from published authors and practice their writing. They get to share original works with everybody on closing day, building confidence in their skills.
You have nothing to worry about the quality of instructors either. Teachers included acclaimed authors, playwrights, and poets with a desire to help youngsters fall in love with writing.
