In this exploratory camp, students will develop their creative writing abilities by experimenting in a wide variety of prose and poetry. Students will examine works from carefully curated authors and will participate in writing activities, craft exercises, and artistic experiences designed to inspire their imaginations. Camp sessions will be facilitated by two local artists: Samar Abulhassan and Jay Thompson are both published poets and educators. The week will culminate with a reading and/or presentation of student work.

This camp is for students entering 5th & 6th grade in Fall 2022 and will take place IN-PERSON at our facility in Capitol Hill. Be sure to read our Covid-19 Policies before registering for this camp.

Scholarships are available by application. Questions? Please email youth@hugohouse.org.
