MARQUETTE — The Young Writers Storytelling Workshop, happening from 9:30 a.m.-4:00 p.m. May 16 at Peter White Public Library, 217 N. Front St., Marquette, has announced that 10 scholarships are available for aspiring young writers who would like to participate in this year’s workshop program.

Designed to inspire creativity, strengthen storytelling abilities, and encourage self-expression, the workshop offers students an engaging opportunity to develop their writing skills in a supportive and collaborative environment.

The Young Writers Storytelling Workshop brings together students who are passionate about writing, imagination, and storytelling. Through guided exercises, interactive discussions, and creative activities, participants learn techniques for crafting compelling stories while gaining confidence in their own voices as writers. The program encourages students to explore fiction, personal narrative, poetry, and imaginative storytelling while connecting with fellow young creatives who share similar interests.

Organizers hope the scholarships will help make the workshop accessible to students from a wide range of backgrounds who may otherwise be unable to participate. The scholarships are available on a first-come, first-served basis. They are intended to support motivated young writers eager to expand their skills, creativity, and appreciation for literature and storytelling.

A complimentary Vango’s pizza lunch is provided during an “Authors Q&A” with special guests Sue Harrison (Pickford), author of “Rescuing Crash,” “The Good Dog” and Sara Mauerer (Sault Ste. Marie), author of “A Good Animal.”
