Not Just About Writing!

YouthWrite is about writing, but also so much more:


  • Meet other aspiring young writers like you.
  • Leave your parents and siblings and everyday life behind to revel in a retreat setting.
  • Try new things that perhaps you've never tried before: yoga and writing, drumming and words, songwriting, illustrating, cartooning, screenwriting, improvisation and writing, body percussion and words, and so much more.  Who knows what you'll learn about yourself?
  • Perform at the Inklings and at the WordPlayful Wrap-up!
  • Work one-on-one at the Blue Pencil Café!
  • Be dazzled by our evening guest performers!
  • Be lulled to sleep by our traditional bedtime story!
  • Prepare to be amazed by the WordPlayful Players at the BEEG and LEETLE SHOWs!!!
