At Just Buffalo Literary Center, we believe in the love of reading, the art of writing, and the power of the literary arts to transform lives and communities. WORDPLAY, our annual anthology featuring the writing of young people composed during our education programs, performs every part of this mission. Take a look inside past issues. See what moves the young people of Western New York. We are always astonished by what is voiced inside, and we are sure you will be too.
