History

Established in 2007.

We run creative writing workshops for kids ages 2 to 18. All of our workshops have a maximum of six students and are led by a published writer who has been fully trained in our time-​tested methodology.

In each of the past five years, more kids from Writopia Lab have been recognized on both the regional and national levels by the Scholastic Art & Writing Awards than from any other school in the nation.

Writopia Lab, a 501©3 non-​profit organization, is a national community of young writers. Founded in New York City in 2007, Writopia Lab has now spread to Greater New York City; Greater Washington, DC; and the Los Angeles region.
