Community Involvement

MWA sponsors activities that benefit the community and encourage the creative growth of Maryland's citizens. We are always open to new ideas and we welcome volunteers who wish to launch or help with community efforts. Current projects include:

  • Teen Writers' Club, started by MWA member Diane Booth and sponsored by MWA. The Club brings highschoolers together after school to share their interest in writing. They learn how to improve their writing and try new approaches by meeting with authors and experts in the field. Topics include overcoming writers' block, introducing dialogue, digging for facts and structuring poetry. The Club meets at Hereford Branch Pubilic Library.

    For more information, e-mail Diane Booth or Barbara Morrison.

Donations go to support MWA's literacy programs.
