Each summer, 826 Valencia hosts its annual Young Authors’ Workshop (YAW). The Young Authors’ Workshop is a two-week intensive writing camp for Bay Area students entering grades ten through twelve. The camp features writing workshops and seminars led by guest authors. This is a great opportunity for students to team up and, with the support of professional writers, poets, and spoken word artists, craft amazing work. The camp is open to twenty-five students who are excited to embark on a transformative journey as they develop their literary voices. We do generally have more interest in the program than we have space, and preference will be given to students attending SFUSD high schools.
* Enthusiastic young people entering grades 10 through 12
* Students excited to participate in a creative and supportive community of peers
* Students who find writing a challenging task and are interested in developing their writing skills
