Tween Art/Writing Program

This is an art and writing program that is held one evening a week at a public library in PA.  The program is open to the public and has been running continuously for about 6 years.  On occasion themes have been followed.  Generally the program alternates with art one week and writing the next.  The program is designed and delivered by two individuals who are also on the library staff.  From time to time there have been assistants and out side speakers invited.
