Question

At the beginning of March, nearly 300 student artists and writers gathered at Utah State University in the United States. They showed their creativity at the 26th annual Young Writers and Artists Party. Student writers shared their stories and poetry. And they got advice from professional writers. Others also attended workshops(工作坊) on telling stories, writing and creating art.

Though most students write stories in the classroom, they try to make their works more creative and open-ended. This year’s writing theme is “The Power of One”. It encourages students to use creativity to change the world. Jeannie is an art teacher from South Cache Middle School. She thinks that students need opportunities like this to express themselves. As teenagers, they can be very sensitive(敏感的) and start to care about other teenagers' opinions.

Megan, an eighth-grader at the school, wrote her own version of the classic story Cinderella. She learned a lot about writing and enjoyed feedback from professional writers.

While some students focused on writing, others created pottery(陶藝), photography and drawings.
