Teen Writing Clubs Win Grant

Constellation has honored MWA’s Teen Writing Program with a $500 grant under its Community Champions Program. Constellation, an Exelon company that supplies energy to homes and businesses in Maryland and throughout the United States, awarded the grant to help the program expand, to pay for teen members to attend the MWA conference in March, and to help subsidize our next teen anthology.

The grant paved the way for the opening of a new teen club in Catonsville that is set to begin in January. We have also just opened a new chapter in Annapolis. The two new clubs will bring the total to 13, serving more than 100 creative writers age 11-17.
