Mission Statement

  1. Running workshops, both within schools and within the community, dedicated to providing students with an arts experience in which they are trained in creative writing as a way to express themselves, develop a broader aesthetic awareness, and make connections within and between themselves and the world in which they live.
  2. Organizing and sponsoring local and regional literary events, including poetry slams and readings, by providing administrative support, staffing, and fund-raising efforts.
