Cool Scribbles
Who? Rising 4th-6th
Where? Thomas Wolfe House When? Tuesday-Friday 9-3:30 $175 Session I July 9-13 Session II July 23-26 Click Here to Register Cool Scribbles is a fun, experiential camp for young writers. We explore "writerly habits" and exercise our right and left brains through wordplay, improv games, collage work, and getting out in the world to hunt interesting characters, stray pieces of dialog, physical details from the mundane to the amazing, and moments we can explode into scenes or poems. And if that wasn't enough fun, on Wednesday, we'll make haikootie catchers with poet, author and performer Allan Wolf. Haikoo? Well, think haiku and then think cootie catcher (you might call them fortune tellers). Lots of laughs, music and haikus galore! The camp ends with a reading and reception for parents and friends. |
