Library to Host Creative Writing Workshop for Teens

The Tompkins County Public Library will host “Teens Write!,” a creative writing workshop for teens led by Irene Zahava, each Wednesday from 4:00 – 5:30 in the Thaler/Howell Programming Room.

“Teens Write!” is most appropriate for tweens and teens ages 11 through 17. The program will provide a safe and supportive environment for creative writing and group sharing. There is no charge for the program; however, advanced registration is required. To register, or for more information, contact Zahava at 607- 273-4675 or zee@twcny.rr.com

Irene (Zee) Zahava is the director of Emma's Writing Center and has been leading writing circles since l994. She is a former bookstore owner, the editor of numerous short story anthologies and haiku journals, and the co-publisher of 2 Turtles Press.

The 2011 Teens Write! program is made possible by gifts from Carrie Shearer and Suzanne Spitz to the Tompkins County Public Library Foundation.
