Winter Writing Camp

Winter Writing Camp 2024 will be Saturday, February 24, for writers ages 5 and up, no experience necessary.

Warm up and write at the 7th Annual Winter Writing Camp! The day-long camp offers writing activities led by regional writers and has dedicated tracks for kids, teens, and adults.

​

In addition to writing fun, attendees will enjoy a musical performance by cellist Lynn Cardwell, a trip to the library, a delicious (and nutritious) lunch, a Youngstown cookie table, an open mic, and cool writing gear–all for free!

​

Registration will close when all seats are full. Workshops for adults on such topics as developing and embodying fictional characters, tapping into your imagination, first drafts, and writing profiles, by Dahlia Fisher, Adrianna Lamonge, Delaney Mathew, Lindsay Sinkovich, David Swerdlow, Katie Urs & James Winter.

 

Many thanks to our hosts St. John's Episcopal Church & the Public Library of Youngstown & Mahoning County, to lunch caterer Susan Payton, and to our many cookie bakers.

 

This event is made possible in part by the Mahoning County Commissioners and the Mercy Health Foundation.
