Call for Conference Session and Workshop Proposals: The Wilmington Writers Conference

The Wilmington Writers Conference is now accepting session proposals for the 2019 conference in Wilmington, DE on Saturday, July 27, 2019 at the Delaware Art Museum. We are looking for proposals with an expansive definition of place in mind. These 90-minute proposed sessions can take the form of craft conversations and workshops; however, preference will be given to workshops that specifically explore this year's theme. We also welcome proposals that are in conversation with the Museum's two summer exhibitions: Relational Undercurrents: Contemporary Art of the Caribbean Archipelago and The Loper Tradition: Paintings by Edward Loper, Sr. and Edward Loper, Jr. Details about each can be found here.

Proposals must be submitted here. 


The deadline for submission is April 1, 2019. Presenters of accepted session proposals will receive complimentary admission to the conference and a $125 honorarium.

For those interested in attending, registration for the conference will open Tuesday, May 28, 2019. Registration is $30 for the general public, $25 for senior citizens and Museum members, and $15 for students with a valid ID. Scholarships are available, and parking will be free!
