Poetry Camp (week 2) *IN PERSON*

Woodland Pattern’s Poetry Camp is a free-of-cost, five-day, inter-arts camp aimed at helping young people embrace their own stories and feel confident about telling them! Each day includes a light breakfast, two hours of focused writing, a workshop with a guest artist, lunch, and a field trip. Throughout the week, students write and participate in a range of creative activities, working not only with poets and spoken word artists, but also with actors, performance coaches, musicians, and visual artists. By the end of the week, students have produced various art works, and created a body of new writing that is performed before the community and commemorated in print. At the end of camp, each student also receives a $100 Woodland Pattern gift card to purchase books of their choosing to help build their personal libraries.

Poetry Camp is open to Milwaukee youth entering grades 6–12. Both weeks will offer a very similar experience. Please choose only one week, as space is limited. We will be implementing procedures to create a safe environment for all.
