Saturday, May 5! Teens Learn from Local, Published Authors
Lake Erie Ink inspires youth writers to find their voice and craft their stories, and we are excited to announce an opportunity for teenagers to learn about the craft of writing from those who do it best at our upcoming Teen Writers Symposium.
At the symposium, teens in grades 6-12 will explore the art of writing in various genres at this Weekend Ink workshop on Saturday, May 5 from 1:00 – 3:30 pm. Held at Loganberry Books at 13015 Larchmere Blvd. in Shaker Heights, this event is a chance for teens from all over the greater Cleveland area to meet local authors, get inspired, and experiment with new writing techniques.
The afternoon will include a panel discussion and breakout workshops featuring freelance journalist and author Brendan Whitt, non-fiction and sci-fi author, playwright and screenwriter Charlotte Morgan, young adult novelist Tricia Springstubb, and nonfiction writer and playwright Christopher Johnston.
Check out our guest writer bios! Print or share the flyer with family and friends!
Admission is $10 with scholarships available. This event is funded in part by the residents of Cuyahoga County through a public grant from Cuyahoga Arts and Culture. For more information and to register, visit www.lakeerieink.org or call 216-320-4757.
