The Western New York Writing Project—a branch of the National Writing Project housed in Buffalo State’s Center for English Teaching and led by English education faculty members Katherine Macro, Maggie Herb, and Hilary Lochte—will hold its Summer Institute at the Writing Center in E. H. Butler Library from July 10 to 14.

The institute—a weeklong workshop for teachers at all levels—will focus on the theme “Our Words in the World: Writing for Change,” exploring how teachers and students can use writing to create change in their classrooms and communities. The institute will feature interactive workshops and lesson-planning sessions, as well as time for participants to do their own writing and research.

Teachers and teacher candidates from across the region, at any grade level, with any level of experience, who have an interest in and commitment to advancing writing and the teaching of writing are welcome. Registration is open through Saturday, July 1. Please email the Western New York Writing Project with questions or for more information.
