Overview
In-person 5-Day/4-Night Workshop and Retreat
Get away for five days at our Summer Camp for fiction and nonfiction storytellers who are looking for inspiration, guidance, mentorship, community, fun, creativity, and…a place to dream!
At Boyds Mills, “summer camp” is different than S’mores by the fire and hiking in the woods. (Though we do that, too.)
Our Summer Camp is a time to find the kind of encouragement for your stories that only a generous mentor can provide. Here you’ll find: inspiration and support; a community that understands the long process of turning dreams into books for children; small group and one-to-one guidance to fine-tune your stories, all while you have some fun.
This is an in-person workshop at our Retreat Center with hands-on sessions, mentorship, and ample time for independent work, meeting informally with fellow creatives, and resting.
Lodging and meals are included.
Begins with dinner 5:30pm Eastern on Sunday, July 12
Ends with lunch on Thursday, July 16
Pre-retreat Zoom to answer questions about submissions and discuss our summer camp community will be held on Monday, June 1 at 12 noon Eastern (this will be recorded for those who cannot attend live).
