Lava!: Holiday Program

  • Family and kids
  • Workshop

A full-day writing workshop of sizzling action stories.

The rickety bridge groans under your feet, barely visible amidst tongues of fuming smoke. The mouth of the volcano looms beneath and begins to gloop, blurp and sputter. The rope-handle twangs as it gives way to a sludgy wave of piping-hot...lava!

Join a day of scorching suspense as you anger the volcano gods and craft a story in their furious wake. What kind of characters would brave the mountain of magma? What are they looking for? And do they have what it takes to escape the rambunctious river of lava, hot on their tails?

For 7-10 year olds.
