Young Writers' Institute Camps

We are excited to announce our 2025 Summer Camps! We hope your child can join us and share in the fun of writing with fellow young creatives. All writers welcome - always!

What is camp like?
We keep things busy and fun while we create!
Inspiration: Learn the elements of the genre and see how other authors create exceptional work.
Development: Create elements such as character, setting, and theme.
Planning: Define the structure.
Drafting: Write and create!
Revising and editing: Use feedback from teachers and peers to grow your writing.
Sharing: Present your work to your supportive and enthusiastic YWI classmates.
Lessons on the writers craft: Learn and practice the skills of authorship.
Games: Think critically, move fast, and have fun with word games and puzzles.
Art: Illustrate your work and design visual elements like maps and book covers (if desired).
Peer connection: Write with the support of other young creatives.
