The Chicago Area Writing Project is excited to announce that we were asked to be the Chicago affiliate of the 86-year old nationally reknown Scholastic Art and Writing Awards program. What better way to acknowledge talented and creative students with an interest in writing? Writing categories include: dramatic script, humor, non-fiction, personal essay, science fiction/ fantasy, journalism, novel writing, poetry, short story and more!
