Sunday Afternoons for Kids: Investigating Character

  • to This is a past program

In this dynamic interactive writing experience, students are invited to think creatively on their feet and playfully discover new characters, both on their own and as part of a collective of young writers. A case file of the student’s missing character is uncovered during the workshop. Anna Hays is a writer, producer, and author of the Portia Avatar series which includes Portia's Exclusive and Confidential Rules on True Friendship and the recently published Portia's Ultra Mysterious Double Life. She lives in Silver Lake and is currently working on a book about a girl magician.

Sunday Afternoons for Kids

The Hammer’s collaborative workshops, presented with 826LA, are designed for groups of up to 20 students. Reservations are encouraged. Contact workshops@826LA.org or call 310-305-8418. 
826LA is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting students with their creative and expository writing skills and to helping teachers inspire their students to write.

Public programs are made possible, in part, by a major gift from Ann and Jerry Moss. 

Additional support is provided by Bronya and Andrew Galef, Good Works Foundation and Laura Donnelley, an anonymous donor, and the Hammer Programs Committee.
