Inspire Me! The Power of Words and Images

Each summer, Independence National Historical Park hosts a group of teens who explore the power of language and images in the place where arguments built a nation.

Young writers delve into the past each day, discovering the park sites and stories that are still relevant today. Every day, students end their journey in the present--blogging, tweeting, and using digital images and videos to inspire future generations.

NOTE: This program will not be available in Summer 2024. Please contact the Philadelphia Writing Project at the University of Pennsylvania for enrollment information on other summer writing camps for teens.
