Barrio Writers on CSU Fullerton Campus!

The Chicana and Chicano Studies Department is hosting the Barrio Writers 1-week summer writing program at California State University Fullerton!

We invite all youth between 13-21 years old to participate in a week long college-level creative writing program taught by local author Sarah Rafael Garcia and Barrio Writer Marilynn Montano, which will provide youth with an opportunity to learn different forms of writing (poetry, spoken word, hip-hop, short stories, essay), a path to college and free cultural arts field trips!
