Founded in 2008, Podium RVA gives Richmond middle and high school youth the opportunity to explore their passion for literary arts while also improving upon essential writing and communication skills. This collection reflects the most poignant, clever, and insightful writing produced by such youth on their own time, and in structured workshops provided by our non-profit organization. For more information, visit our website at www.thepodiumfoundation.org, or on social media @podiumRVA.
