Through creative writing, CoMo Young Writers helps young people from all backgrounds to understand the importance of their own stories and those of others, so that they can pursue the path they choose and inspire one another to become lifelong writers. Under the guidance of Hickman High School teacher Nancy White, 13 teen writers have been meeting bi-weekly since January to write three-minute individual and team poems to be performed at this event. If the preview we saw at the festival’s first “Cups and Couplets” event last Fall is any indication, prepare to be moved, delighted, and entertained!
