During this time of social distancing and staying at home, Lake Erie Ink is sustaining our identity as a writing “space” for youth through a program series run entirely on online spaces!
Creative Communities Online is back! We will use Zoom Meetings to bring youth of all ages together to talk, write and create. Including a podcasting workshop, playwriting challenge and even a D&D campaign, our program list has something for everyone – even teachers! Click here to register!
If you are a teacher or educator looking for a more targeted program to help with your own online classes contact Jill Levin at jill@lakeerieink.org. We are always looking for new ways to support educators.
