Dive into a creative writing journey led by Helena Fox, an acclaimed author, poet, and mentor. This workshop is designed especially for youth aged 13 to 18 years who want to explore and extend their writing style. Whether your teen feels stuck for ideas or eager to sharpen their storytelling skills, this session will ignite their imagination.
Participants will learn how to use everyday observations—from looking out a window to people watching or examining photographs—as inspiration for their stories. It’s a chance to get curious and see the world through a writer’s eyes.
This is the third workshop in a series, continuing to build on skills and creativity in a supportive environment.
The workshop runs for two hours, providing ample time for hands-on writing exercises and guidance from Helena Fox. It is suitable for teens who are passionate about writing or just beginning to explore their creative voice.
