WritersCorps announces their first-ever film event: the Poetry Projection Project. This contest calls on filmmakers of all ages to create short films based on poems by the kids at WritersCorps. In keeping with WritersCorps’ mission of helping youth through creative expression, the Poetry Projection Project encourages filmmakers to explore the power of young people’s words and voices.
