            On Thursday, April 4th, the Creative Writing Club hosted its annual Coffeehouse. From 4PM  to 5:30PM students sat at workshop tables where they could express themselves through drawing, writing, and playing creative writing games. After an hour of composing creative works, everyone was encouraged to share their writing aloud. Several writers shared beautiful pieces, displaying their writing skills and immense creativity. To finish the event, the winners of the 2024 Creative Writing Contest winners were announced, as well as the winners of the Coffeehouse Raffle. We were so glad to see people come out to the event, and can’t wait for next year!
