The Department of Arts, Communication, Media, and English at Texas A&M University-Texarkana is bringing back its annual Young Writers’ Workshop for 2023.
The workshop will take place from 8:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. July 17th through the 21st and is open to any incoming 1st grade through 12th grade student. The cost of the one-week workshop is $40.
Participants in the workshop spend their time engaged in reading, writing, and artistic activities designed to develop and deepen their understanding of genres and themes often left underexplored in traditional classrooms. The young writers will work with age-appropriate content and may explore genres including myths, fairy tales, travel memoirs, adventure writing, proposals, poetry, one-day plays, character sketches, short fiction, and graphic novels.
