SPECIAL SUMMER WORKSHOPS!

Dr. Who

BY POPULAR DEMAND!

WRITING IN THE BLUE BOX:
Creating an Epic "Doctor Who" Episode

Truly, this class was inspired and created with some of our favorite students in mind. In this workshop, we'll use the techniques of episodic television to create the environment of a TV writer’s room. The goal: to construct a truly Gallifreyan adventure. (Usually we shy away from fan fiction in our workshops, but, hey, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em!) For middle school, high school and adults - if you dare!

Mondays, July 8-August 12, 7:30-9:00 PM
Sparkhouse Studio, 19 Scotland Road, South Orange, NJ
taught by Chip Davis & Judith Lindbergh
Tuition: $195 for six weeks*

*If you're already taking another class, contact us before you register for the discount code.

College Essay Writing

Creative College Essay Writing
for high school juniors and seniors

The personal essay is an important part of every college-bound student’s application, but it need not be a burden. Telling a story about oneself is a chance to reflect and collect a unified vision of where you’ve been and where you’re going. Crafting a unique essay that presents an intimate look at your attitude, aptitude and interests can be fun, creative and pain-free.

Our approach to the college essay is friendly, organic, intimate and organized. It starts with you: what you’re interested in, what your strengths and weaknesses are, what kinds of personal journeys you’ve had.  Once we find that story, we help you craft it into an essay that is lively, exciting and utterly you.
