Youth Poetry Workshops are a component of WordSpace Next Generation Project in support and development of young writers. WordSpace presents writing and performance workshops mentored by top Dallas poets and educators. The workshops are open to ages 13-19. Selected articipants also have the opportunity to appear in WordSpace Salons alongside experienced writers. Traveling writers visit workhops as special guests and young writers are given opportunities to submit their work to publications and performances.
Principle Funding is made possible by City of Dallas Office of Cultural Affairs and TACA. This program is created in partnership with Oak Cliff Cultural Center.
