Literary Adventures – Writing Workshop at UCLA (Rising 7-8th Graders)

June 23, 2025 9:00 am - July 3, 2025 12:00 pm

UCLA Writing Project Summer Camp

In this workshop, students will write to become changemakers.

Join us as we examine our environment and natural world. Students can expect to read, watch, and listen to texts about the environment and environmental issues. They will draft narratives about themselves connected to nature and then compose an argumentative text that creates a call for action to inspire change.

Don’t miss this journey of self-expression through writing. Join us and unlock the writer within you!

Fee: $650
