On May 20 and 21 the Shoreline community is invited to the Seattle Arts and Lectures’ Writers in the Schools Year-End Reading. The Writers in the Schools Program (WITS) places professional local writers in public schools to develop writing skills and spark inspiration.
Since 1994, the WITS program in the Seattle area has been helping students discover their own authentic voices. Featuring creative writing by students in last year’s program, this reading by 50 young authors will move the audience to tears, laughter, awe and wild applause.
This year’s readers include Cascade K-8 students Gray Liteky and Jaeden Caldwell on May 20.
The readings will take place in the Microsoft Auditorium in the Central Downtown Branch of the Seattle Public Library at 6pm. Students in grades K-6 will read on Wednesday, May 20, and students in grades 7-12 will read on Thursday, May 21. The events are free and open to the public.
