Dark possible futures that have a lot to say about the present — collected works by the juniors and seniors of OCEAN School, Port Townsend, WA.
| "What would Orwell write today?"
Eleventh and twelfth grade students at OCEAN School read 1984 and studied the way George Orwell used dystopian fiction to critique dangerous tendencies in the world of his day. Then they wrote their own stories — original dystopian fictions — to express their own critiques of contemporary societal ills.
Join us as student authors read selections from their collected zine, Dystopia, and share what they imagine, fear, and refuse to accept about the world being handed to them.
