Spring 2027

Teach GWN

In this Journey, members of the GWN community will develop curriculum and facilitate a Community Studio for one or more cycles within GWN’s Collaboratory structure. Each cycle involves facilitating three Community Studios, one per month. Mentees and mentors will gain valuable skills in leadership, teaching, and community building. Mentees and mentors can facilitate a Community Studio either independently (if they are 18 or older) or together as a pair. Through the experience, mentees will build confidence as leaders and educators, while mentors will develop their teaching and facilitation skills, learn effective educational practices, and help cultivate a vibrant, peer-driven learning community.

What Past Participants Have to Say

“The community that Girls Write Now has and how much I learn on a daily basis. Girls Write Now has helped me so much throughout the years with me pushing out work even when times are hard for me.”
Ruby Gabrielle Nicholson Mentee
“The most valuable part of Girls Write Now is the community studios, as they’re a perfect opportunity to connect with other GWN members while also working on your personal skillset. Many community studios also focus on other art forms other than writing or connecting them to writing, encouraging people to build other skills outside of just writing.”

“Girls Write Now provided me a welcoming, relieving, judgement-free space to explore my writing voice, decompress through vulnerable conversations, and build my confidence in teaching.”

“My mentee specifically stated that she wanted to learn more about teaching and how to write lesson plans. We were able to work closely building our lessons together until she eventually was able to complete a lesson plan entirely on her own! She left being a more confident teacher and I watched her take control of our community studios and blossom into a fierce leader.”
Ashley-Anna Aboreden Mentor
