Creative Connection Camp

Creative Connection is designed to support the Emotional and Social Intelligence (ESI) and  creative empowerment of girls during their formative middle school  years. We provide a playful environment for students to escape into the  creative writing process, where they can find joy and self-mastery in  the stories and worlds they create. We also provide a safe space for  students to address any personal challenges they may be facing through  the structured container of the Amherst Writing Method.* Our teachers  encourage and model authenticity, peer support, and self-confidence.  Each session involves an inspirational reading, imaginative writing  prompts, and time to write, share and receive feedback.

*At The Intuitive Writing Project, we use the Amherst Writing Method,  a methodology rooted in the belief that everyone is a writer with their  own unique voice. We support the discovery and development of one’s  voice by ensuring that all feedback remains positive, focused on the  strength of the writing. The more students write and share, the more  they learn to believe in themselves, both as writers and as people.
