Here’s a great opportunity for local boys in grades 7-12. On Friday, Aug 8, the Alliance for Young Artists & Writers, the nonprofit presenter of the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards, and the Philadelphia Writing Project are offering a free writing workshop at Penn Museum. This interactive workshop is a part of a writing workshop series, START.WRITE.NOW, taking place at various locations around the city. Friday’s workshop is the only Start.Write.Now workshop offered in West Philadelphia.
Start.Write.Now is a national initiative to encourage students to share their voice and engage with their creative peers over the summer. Local workshop facilitators will help boys in attendance to discover new, fun outlets of artistic expression, from poetry, sports articles, and digital stories to comics, rap lyrics, video and card games.
The space is limited to 20 participants, so hurry up to register for the workshop.
Friday, Aug 8, 10 a.m. – 2 p.m., University of Pennsylvania Museum (The Kress Entrance), 3260 South St

This is an awesome opportunity for boys. I recently read that the federal government determines how many prisons to build based on the 4th grade reading scores of boys.
