The Boston Public Library and Tikatok have started a series of creative writing workshops to take place over the next few weeks at each of the branch libraries. Kids who participate in the event are in for an hour or two of writing and illustrating using Tikatok’s StorySparks system, and each child will receive a free copy of his or her finished book! We’re already seeing some great examples coming in from workshops held at Adams St., Fields Corner, Grove Hall, Jamaica Plain, and Orient Heights. If you missed the event nearest you, don’t worry! There are still plenty upcoming, including one at the main library branch in Copley Square on Friday, August 1 at 2:30PM. Here is the full slate:
