Getting ready for A Writers Party 2025
everyone knows writers throw the best parties
We are gearing up for another addition of A Writers Party. For those of you who aren’t already familiar, A Writers Party is a Philadelphia-based mini festival
(of ) and I have been putting together for writers and literary fans who want to commune with others in the creative space but cannot afford (or do not wish) to travel or attend AWP.This year, in addition to our usual online reading and in-person extravaganza (you know, a big party with food, drinks, poetry, a DJ, and a photo-booth, and maybe karaoke?!), we are asking our community members to get involved and submit proposals for workshops or events they would like to lead (you can find the Google forms for submitting proposals by following those links!).
We love the idea of A Writers Party being a true community-led mini festival, with programming created for and by its participants. Of course, everything will be free and available for everyone, and while we welcome everyone to Philadelphia, we understand it’s not feasible for all to make a voyage here so we will do our best to have an ample amount of online festivities for those at home.
The 2024 installment of A Writers Party was so fun, and we’re hoping to make A Writers Party 2025 even bigger and better. If you think you’d like to put together a workshop or event, but want some help, or would like to team up with another writer or artist, please fill out our form (links above) and let us know what you have in mind and what you’re open to. A Writers Party is for everyone, and we want our programming to be inclusive and community-led.
