Forest Arts and ArtfulScribe are continuing their collaboration to bring the Young Writers and Junior Writers Clubs to Forest Arts Centre in New Milton.

As a Junior Writer, you'll have the opportunity to:

  • Attend engaging workshops led by professional writers
  • Enjoy performances at Forest Arts
  • See your work published online, in print, and performed live on stage

Workshop Details:

Workshops take place on Saturday mornings during term time and offer a safe, supportive space for young writers to share their work, receive constructive feedback, and grow their confidence.

These sessions are free to attend, but we ask for a commitment to regular attendance. Please only reserve a space if you can attend most or all sessions.

All workshops are suitable for both beginners and experienced writers.
