Registration Information

All writers from beginning to advanced are welcome to attend, and we also welcome area high school writers. Admission is free, but so we have an accurate number of attendees, we are asking that you register in advance. Lunch is free for all attendees, and there will be meat, plant-based, and gluten-free options, as well as coffee and pastries in the morning. Participants are welcome to attend the full day of readings and workshops, or as much as their schedules allow.
