Writopia runs creative writing workshops for kids ages 2 to 18.

All of their workshops have a maximum of eight students and are led by a published author or produced playwright who has been fully trained in their time-tested methodology. In each of the past six years, their students have won more recognition for their writing than any other group of students in the nation.

In the workshops our writers explore the creative writing genre of their choice (fiction, fantasy, science fiction, poetry, memoir, scripts, comics, graphic novels, humor, etc. ) or essay writing. Out instructors are published authors who are deeply invested in the well-being and development of Writopia writers. They help our writers complete one piece of writing by the end of each workshop. Participants are then invited to read their writing at a local bookstore, and may also publish their pieces online at Writopia's own literary magazines, The Parenthetical or The Ellipsis.
