Manifest the Future Festival Workshop

Does your youngster have a flair for writing and the dramatic – a creative talent that cannot be tamed? This might be the ticket: Them’s aged 5-18 are invited to showcase their creativity at the youth new works festival Manifest the Future, with entries inspired by Xavier Alvarado’s painting I Was Given a Tree by a Wizard. While the festival isn’t until fall, entries are due Aug. 12, and professional artists are available to coach prospective entrants this Saturday. Get all the details at newmanifest.org. – Kat McNevins
