Muse Squad Joins Community Art Center

A fun creative writing program for kids called Muse Squad has come to New Milford! The course is offered at Village Center For The Arts and is open for ages 9 - 11. The character-filled space will serve as a perfect backdrop for children to write stories.

The newly launched writing program is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Instructor, Brittney Richardson, says she came up with Muse Squad as a dream course that she wishes was offered when she was young.

"Miss Brittney" says: “Children will be introduced to various literary devices and techniques that they’ll apply to different pieces of writing. They are invited to dabble in many genres—fiction, nonfiction, poetry, stream of consciousness, etc.”

The spring course starts Friday, March 17th, 4:00 - 5:30. It meets for 10 weeks. Village Center For The Arts is located at 12 Main Street, New Milford, Connecticut. The program concludes with a final reading and reception open to family and friends.

Bring a notebook and pen or laptop. Max 12 students. Tuition is $350. Completed registration form with payment confirms your reservation in the class. Call (860)354-4318 for more information or with any questions.

If your child wants to have fun writing, sign them up for Muse Squad Jr! Kids can take the bus from school!
