Do you have a budding writer in your family or perhaps a child in need of a creative outlet?
The Yellowstone Writing Project's Youth Writing Camp is a multi-day "unschooled" writing workshop for youth entering grades 5-12. Campers will write in multiple genres and share their writing within a supportive community of peers and licensed educators--the Yellowstone Writing Project teacher consultants.
The program includes writing on the move, writing games, and guidance and feedback throughout the writing process. The camp is led by Yellowstone Writing Project (YWP) teachers and junior counselors.
