Rising Writers: A Creative Writing Starter Kit
Thursday 19 February 2026·5:30 pm
How young can writers begin to create literary works? This workshop will give early to mid-elementary writers the foundation that will lead up to the literary devices and techniques they’ll learn later on. As a lead-up to junior high creative writing and beyond, this workshop will review hands-on activities and ideas to get your students dabbling in sensory language, comparisons, defamiliarization, tone, and more. 45 Participants
