Free Mentorship Program
The Writing Studio has been offering 10 weeks of scriptwriting online classes yearly since the pandemic in 2021 to address the issue of the growing number of dormant youths in the country due to the then nationwide lockdown. We started with a few students but the number is slowly growing demanding the need for physical classes and an extensive curriculum – all at no cost
This program kicks off in April every year and goes on till June. The classes are facilitated by renowned scriptwriter Lucky Lora Atwiine.
