Designing Engaging Creative Writing Programs for Youth

Looking to bring creative writing opportunities to your library? Join Cosmic Writers for an interactive professional development workshop designed for librarians, media specialists, and educators who want to engage young people through storytelling. Participants will explore Cosmic Writers’ approach to creative writing, experience hands-on activities they can use with young writers, and learn practical strategies for designing and facilitating creative writing workshops in their own library settings. Whether you’re starting a new writing club or looking to expand your library’s existing programming, you’ll leave with adaptable activities, ready-to-use resources, and ideas for making creative writing accessible, engaging, and fun for young people.
