We had such a blast providing writing and communication workshops for 5th graders through our partnerships with CREATE, Inc. and Twin Lakes Libraries of Middle Georgia Regional Library System this fall! We're planning for next year's workshops in poetry, prose, podcasting, and more. Please fill out this Smartsheet form to help us best meet the needs of our students. Parents/guardians should attend workshops with students. Registration is free and materials are provided!

Please reach out with any questions at 478-445-0816 or jessica.mcquain@gcsu.edu
