You can go for 1 week or for all the weeks. You can do it for credit or not. It is completely fun poetry summer camp.
Those who identify as other than white, there is a scholarship, The Zora Neale Hurston Scholarships which covers partial to full tuition and local housing for the summer. Applications are due sometime in April. To receive a scholarship application, please contact the SWP Coordinator at 303-546-5296.
