SUMMARY:June 24 to 28\, 2024 | Swift Youth Writers Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Open to 6th to 12th Graders\nFive consecutive sessions – June 24 to 28th\n10:00 AM to 12:30 PM\nLocation: Ames Public Library\nFREE \n\n\nIn partnership with the Ames Public Library\, our Swift Youth Writers Workshops offer kids an escape into creative writing and the opportunity to connect with other youth writers. \n\n\nRegardless of genre\, for five days writers will come together in a safe space to read an inspirational piece of writing and write together to timed-writing prompts. At the end of each session\, writers will be invited to read aloud to the group to receive positive feedback. \nThese sessions are based upon the Amherst Writers & Artists Method\, a methodology rooted in the belief that everyone is a writer. All feedback given is focused on the unique voice and strengths of the writer to encourage and model authenticity\, peer support\, and self-confidence. \n \n  \nThese FREE sessions are held at the Ames Public Library. The Ames Writers Collective’s Community Outreach programs are funded by our generous donors\, and held in partnership between the Ames Public Library and the Ames Writers Collective. \nFrom one of our previous Youth Writers: “I learned from sharing my work with the group that I’m more confident than I thought. I felt that sharing with the group allowed for fair criticism that allowed me to improve my writing and it helped boost my confidence in my work.” -RC \n\n\nEmail Us to Register Today!\nPlease include your name\, your teenager’s name\, and your phone number in your message. \nClass of 2023!\nClass of 2022!\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nThis FREE Ames Writers Collective Community Outreach Program is funded by a Kiwanis Club of Ames Grant\, and held in partnership between the Ames Public Library and the Ames Writers Collective.
