YC Takeover - Young Journo: with Joseph Hathaway Wilson

How does a writer become a journalist? What makes the news worth reading? In this fun workshop learn how to investigate, interview, and turn the everyday into something extraordinary.

In order to assemble news stories that grab their audience, a young journo will need to more than research and their story they will use their creative and written communication skills to capture the reader.

The Young Creatives Takeover features workshops suggested by and developed with former Young Creatives Awards entrants. All programs are delivered by young people for young people.

This workshop is designed for ages 12-15.
