The Write on Bowen Festival of Readers & Writers is a three-day event on beautiful Bowen Island that showcases writers and authors and their work. It provides opportunities for participants to attend workshops and other events that will aid them in the development of word-based creative endeavours. It allows everyone, including the general public, to be exposed to a rich diversity of voices, styles and presentation of works. It engenders connections and inspiration between and amongst all in attendance as they are drawn together around the love of the written and spoken word.
In addition to offering stimulating interactive workshops to writers of all genres and levels, the Festival presents author readings, a Saturday night Gala featuring a keynote speaker, luncheon panels and other special events. We look forward to welcoming you to our idyllic island.
