For students grades K-5
If you’re a student in grades K-5, we have some amazing news for you! The Inkroot Project is kicking off a brand-new, 100% free, in-person workshop series designed specifically for young writers in grades K-5. Our first workshop will be held on 12/13/25 in-person at a location in downtown Bellevue.
Our experienced teen mentors will guide you through a mix of interactive activities, group and individual writing time, and module-based lectures in order to make workshops as fun and engaging as possible. Click the link below to sign up for our workshops!
For students grades 6 or above
Unfortunately, we do not have any workshop openings for students in grades 6 or above at this moment. However, please stay tuned, because we are currently in the process of planning a workshop series for middle and high school writers!
Although there is no “right” way to write, our workshops will still offer you valuable insight into core tenets of writing that your favorite authors use all the time. Click the link below to receive updates and details when workshops open up (likely sometime in early winter).
For teachers
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 or school district. 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 your teaching and help students see writing as a powerful and personal tool.
For students, The Inkroot Project is a low-stakes, flexible way to explore creative writing. Whether you’re a seasoned creative or just starting out, we’ll support you as you grow throughout your literary journey.
