The Young Authors’ Conference brings together committed young writers in School District No. 73 to work with professional authors. 2024 marks the 45th anniversary of this popular event.
To inspire interest, on February 14th the Young Authors' Conference will be launched with several online workshops SD73 students may attend with their whole class, supervised by their teacher.
On May 3, SD73 students in Grades 4 through 12 may be eligible to attend in-person workshops at Thompson Rivers University. Manuscripts will be collected from these students and considered for recognition and the Marg van Dusen Award. Space is limited and this in-person event is subject to change.
See the Conference tab for more details about the day. See the Manuscripts tab for composition criteria. See the Authors tab in March for this year's authors and their workshop descriptions.
For more information, please contact Tricia Persad or Mike Carson.
