History
Richmond Young Writers was founded in 2009 with the intention of introducing young people to the craft and joy of creative writing. Professional writers in the community, both on our staff and through guest workshops, share skills in fiction, poetry, creative nonfiction, screenwriting, journalism and more with students ages 9-17.
Specialties
Richmond Young Writers facilitates personal growth and a sense of community in young writers by helping them access the power of their own voices. Register for our winter, spring and fall after-school workshops and our summer camps on our site!
