America's Premier Arts Camp
 
Writing

Small groups of creative writing students engage the forms of poetry, short fiction and playwriting in covered, open-air studios. The program culminates in the publication of Usdan's literary magazine, Painting with Words, a multidisciplinary publication which includes student-produced poetry and writing.

For detailed information about these and all other Usdan courses, please visit the "All Classes" page.
