Sunday Feb 2, 2025 – Monday, May 19, 2025

Welcome to the Laura (Riding) Jackson Foundation’s brand new middle school writing group!

This group will run on a similar model to our adult writing groups:

  • Meet bi-weekly
  • Led by a facilitator who provides meeting structure
  • Participants will be given time at group meetings to write, share their writing, and give & receive feedback on each other’s writing

Each middle school writing group meeting will include:

  • An opening “mini-lesson” and writing prompt to get everyone started
  • Time for writing and feedback about both writing related to the prompt and other writing the member has completed outside of group, if desired
  • Leadership opportunities

LOCATION

SUNDAY meetings will take place at the LRJF Writing Center, 1914 14th Avenue, Vero Beach, FL  32960.  

MONDAY meetings will take place on Zoom. (Instructions will be provided by email.)
