"A unique opportunity for kids who like to write. Week-long programs for students entering grades 4-12. Imagine spending a week with other young writers, learning from professional writer/teachers, writing in the studio called home by many published authors. Redbird is a writer's place – part studio and part education center. Our summer sessions give young authors the time, space and support they need to nurture their passion for writing. Sessions are led by accomplished writing teachers who tailor activities specifically to the age and interests of each group. Young authors may walk on the beach, hike a wooded trail or visit a cemetery, gathering inspiration and learning practical skills. Each day includes some lighthearted activities, age-appropriate lessons on the craft of writing and, best of all, time to write. Redbird is located in the Marian Center – formerly St. Mary’s Academy – overlooking the Lake Michigan shoreline on Milwaukee’s south side. The private grounds and lake front setting make it an especially inspiring place for writers of all ages."
