Each year MWP hosts several Young Authors Camps (YACs) around the state. YACs provide young writers an environment to:

  • explore different genres of writing, including autobiography, poetry, fiction, and nonfiction
  • develop their writing while working with experienced classroom teachers and Maine Writing Project teacher-consultants
  • celebrate their work and share their creative pieces in a relaxed atmosphere with peers and writing project mentors.
