Going Into the Community

Indiana Writers' Consortium is always looking for opportunities to partner with community organizations. Last Saturday, July 20, we partnered with the Westchester Public Library to celebrate the completion of its summer reading program for children. The celebration took place in Thomas Centennial Park in Chesterton, Indiana. IWC provided writing activities for the children and a book fair for the adults. Here are a few pictures.

reading poetry on the children's "stage." The poems

were by young winners from IWC's Power of Poetry Project.

Three of our authors.

Even grownups liked creating magnetic poetry.

It was a fun day in the park for everyone who participated.

A special thanks to Sandra Nantais for locating and arranging this partnership opportunity.
