We are THRILLED to announce that the achievements of THREE of our Creative Writing students have been recognised in competitions and with publication! One of our young writers has had a short story accepted for publication in Stone Soup magazine and another will see her work published by ‘Kids Write 4 Kids’. Meanwhile, we learned today that a third writing student was a finalist for The New York Times’ student ‘Open Letter’ competition. Congratulations to all these winners – we are so proud of you!

Of course, all 28 of our students saw their work published last month in our annual Anthology, which  was entitled The Shop of Wonders. We held a book launch in early June, and writers read from their work. You can read online versions of all our anthologies here: https://www.centauriarts.com/academy/on-line-writing-magazines/

Our Creative Writing Classes are EXPANDING this Fall!

Centauri Arts has offered a Saturday Creative Writing Salon for ages 12-18 throughout the year for the past decade – and now, this fills with a waiting list. In addition to this – and our Virtual Creative Writing Salon – we will be offering TWO new writing classes, starting this September! On Tuesday evenings we’re running a new Creative Writing class for ages 9-14 and on Saturday mornings we’re offering a writing class for adult writers!
