Red Hen Press seeks support for 'WITS HQ', an 8-week extension of its Writing in the Schools program, to take place onsite at the Press's 'Hen House' event space. Underserved high school students will learn the trajectory of a book's life and gain practical and technical skills in the publishing industry. Lessons, taught by staff and outside instructors, will cover creative writing workshops, book cover and interior design, social media and marketing strategies, and culminate with the printing and public reading of student work.
