Young Authors Conference (YAC) students attend a keynote and three sessions taught by local MN writers and artists. Students in 4th-8th grade are challenged to explore their writing talents and to think in new ways. Red Shirt Volunteers make this happen through helping students navigate across 6 buildings on the Bethel University campus, assist with lunch and book fair duties, and get to listen to students share original work at an open mic and in sessions. Volunteers work together to make it a safe and fun day!
