Library to Host Workshop for Young Writers

Children and teens ages 9 through 18 are invited to participate in “Talking Hands,” a creative writing workshop facilitated by Irene “Zee” Zahava, Sunday, November 6 from 2:00 to 4:00 PM in the Tompkins County Public Library’s Thaler/Howell Programming Room.

Offered by the Library, in conjunction with the Family Reading Partnership’s Kid’s Book Fest 2011—“Reading Magic”, this free workshop will offer young writers an opportunity to create and share poems, fiction and true stories in a supportive, judgment-free environment.

Zahava is a local author, publisher and writing group facilitator. She is the director of Emma’s Writing Circle in Ithaca, and has led dozens of writing workshops at the Library.

This workshop is limited to 20 people; advanced registration is required. For more information or to register, contact Zahava  at zee@twcny.rr.com or (607) 273-4675.

This workshop is made possible through generous support from Suzanne Spitz and Carrie Shearer.
