For teachers & librarians

Our 100% free workshops are an excellent way to supplement ELA curriculum! They’re designed specifically to jumpstart student interest in the literary arts, as well as guide them through the basics of creative writing.

The Inkroot Project is open to hosting in-person or online afterschool workshop events for your school, school district, or library system. Please fill out the form below if you’re interested in booking a workshop!

Why The Inkroot Project

For teachers, The Inkroot Project gives students a chance to dive deeper into creative writing outside the classroom. We offer spaces where young learners can play with language, build confidence, and explore their ideas through writing. Our programs are designed to complement and enrich your English Language Arts curriculum.

For students, The Inkroot Project is a low-stakes, flexible way to explore creative writing and connect with other young writers. Although there is no “right” way to write, our goal is to provide you with the arsenal of literary techniques at a writer’s disposal to help you create thought-provoking, engaging works.
