Past event
Lead by Khallori Cosmey, a student of screenwriting, and Joelle Brummitt-Yale, a creative teacher and homeschool parent. Khallori and Joelle look forward to sharing their passion about stories, written and read, with both new and returning campers! In the Creative Writing Workshop, we’ll explore the world of scriptwriting, from brainstorming ideas and developing characters to producing a polished piece ready to be performed. Campers will have a chance to write, revise, and even perform (if they choose) their work in a supportive, collaborative environment.
Our Reading Circle group will build a community of support for reading and/or listening and then explore all the thoughts, questions and ideas that books can present and inspire. In this session, we’ll be complimenting our scriptwriting with script reading. We’ll explore a series of great dramatic and comedic plays through reading and viewing.
You can sign up for Creative Writing or Reading Circle BUT we would love it if people signed up for BOTH — as there is plenty of interplay between writing and reading great writing! The inaugural session of this workshop in Fall 2021 brought together a group of homeschoolers with a wide range of ages and abilities and succeeded in making a safe inspiring environment for every single participant.
Ages 12–18
