RavenScrawl Studio (Grades 5-10)

RavenScrawl Studio presents the Rookery, a haven for young artists, writers, makers, and gamers who celebrate the mythic imagination.  Each session is designed around a theme drawn from mythologies from many cultures and times.  The program will remain ever-fluid, exploring a theme alongside a working artists, while allowing other directions to develop from individual or group interests.  Artists may craft mythical projects, while gamers host tabletop games, and writers curl up to dream up new mythologies - all under the direction of an experienced world builder.
