Write Your Own Story!
Creative writing workshop for youth ages 12+
A workshop full of stories, questions, and ideas!
How do we stay true to ourselves? What does it take to follow our dreams? How can stories give us courage?
Inspired by The Island That Travels Through Time, this creative writing workshop invites young writers to explore their own voice.
Through Izzy’s journey to find the courage to be herself and Ariana’s fight for the right to dream, we will reflect on what it means to stand by what truly matters to us.
With fun and engaging exercises, we will write letters to our future selves, reimagine the world as we’d like it to be, and bring characters to life on paper.
A journey into storytelling, self-expression, and the power of words!
Sunday March 30, 2025 | 12.00-13.00
