Our week-long camps are a great home for any budding writer, reading enthusiast, or imaginative artist. We aim to encourage students to be their truest selves and showcase their ideas though the written word. Come join us this summer in building a creative community. Check back soon for upcoming youth offerings!

In Summer 2022, the Hudson Valley Writers Center launched the Writers Express Youth Summer Programs to foster creativity and excitement for students ages 8-18. Our name Writers Express comes from our unique Philipse Manor Train Station venue, as well as our mission to encourage participants to express themselves through the literary arts.

The Hudson Valley Writers Center strives to make our offerings financially accessible to all youth, regardless of financial barriers. Thanks to our generous grant funders, we are able to offer scholarships for our summer camps to support access to high-quality literary programming for all participants, regardless of their economic circumstances.
