This summer teenagers explored ways to put their thoughts into words and discover their unique voices. As participants in the Teen Writing Workshops, they had the opportunity to discuss social justice, identity, race, politics, and pop culture as they examined art, engaged in art analysis, and practiced their writing skills through monologue and descriptive writing, haiku, and dream journaling. Herewith, selected writings from the summer 2021 teen writing workshop.
