Meet the Magic Dragon (July 29 – August 2)

(AFTERNOONS: for ages 7-9) This camp is not about dragons, it is about writing, artwork, and trying to get published! Are you a serious writer or artist who would like to see your work in print? This camp provides a real opportunity for advanced students to have work considered for publication in The Magic Dragon, an award-winning, local art and literary magazine for young people. Each student will receive a complimentary copy of The Magic Dragon to see first-hand examples of previously selected works, and read its “how-to” articles on writing or producing quality artwork in fun ways. The goal for each participant is to complete and submit one or more publishable pieces of writing and/or art by the end of the workshop. While actual publication cannot be guaranteed, special attention will be given to reviewing guidelines for and then sending submissions. Students should come to this workshop with a strong interest and good skills in writing and/or illustration.
