Description

Attention all fiction writers, playwrights, and spoken word artists: Do you love working with teens? Are you excited by the idea of helping young writers work on their individual short stories, poetry, plays, and songs? Writopia Lab, an award-winning 501(c)3 non-profit that runs the country's best creative writing workshops for kids, ages 6-18, is looking instructors for our off-site creative writing workshop at a Residential Treatment Facility for adjudicated youth. The workshop runs from 4:15 to 5:45pm on Tuesdays.

 

During the school year, workshops meet once a week. All young writers finish at least one piece by the end of their workshop.

 

Our teachers are half camp counselor (fun and funny, warm and engaging) and half savvy editor/teacher (astute, insightful, serious, open, sensitive). We train teachers extensively in our method and are looking for published fiction authors and/or produced playwrights. To find out more information regarding who we are and what we do here at Writopia, please visit our website at www.writopialab.org.

 

If you are excited by the idea of joining a community of writers and helping children and teens learn to write, please fill out this short form. (Don’t forget to attach your resume, cover letter, and publication history!) No phone calls or drop ins, please.
