ABOUT LEFT2WRITE |
To provide creative writing programming, that supports and broadens student access to writing opportunity, literacy, and scholarship, to underfunded schools and the community. Left2Write is a 501 (c) (3) as a Nonprofit Corporation where Teaching Artists partner with schools to deliver extracurricular creative writing residencies where students have six-weeks and thirteen-sessions to explore writers, themes, forms, and themselves. All school programs are included in four annual events and schools are welcome to request a professional development workshop also run by our team. Our work together culminates in a release party and reading of a newly bound anthology, which is submitted to PRESLM/NCTE and the American Scholastic Press Association for excellence in student literary magazines. Student work is also submitted for publication and scholarship with Scholastic Arts & Writing Awards and Poetry Matters. |
