Storyark

storyark helps students in middle school and high school initiate creative teams to write and produce narrative podcasts, short films, and a literary magazine that publishes prose, poetry and visual arts. we ask youth, “what’s your story? how do you want to tell it?” they respond in ways that transform not only themselves, but also the audience who gains empathy and understanding of the student experience. student initiated, student led, our creative process focuses on building life skills through a passion for storytelling and the desire to communicate and be in relationship with each other. in our creative process, students lead students and professional writers, actors, directors, filmmakers and editors serve as mentors who share their skills and wisdom as needed with youth. as we work together and support each other individually as artists, quality content naturally emerges. ultimately, our artistic success is determined by how well we develop students as individuals and as team
