The San Diego County Office of Education and the California Indian Museum and Cultural Center host the first Native Ways of Knowing Indigenous Writers Workshop this summer.

By the end of the workshop, participants will:

• Understand the fundamentals of writing for children and young adults
• Gain knowledge of the trade publishing process
• Develop and revise original writing
• Learn practical submission strategies
• Strengthen their confidence in their voice and storytelling
• Build connections within a supportive community of Indigenous writers
• Leave with tools and resources to continue their writing journey
