Help us foster the transformative power of books and ideas to create an empathetic, inspired and just society.
For over 30 years, the Vancouver Writers Fest has been curating important conversations between Vancouver audiences and the world’s greatest and most unique authors. As one of the most celebrated literary festivals in the world, we program important conversations that impact the perspectives of over 25,000 people every year.
Ticket sales cover less than one-third of the cost to put on our impactful events. We rely on the generosity of our community to ensure that Vancouver continues to be a cultural hub where ideas and conversations can be enjoyed by all members of our community. Your gift will help us bring diverse voices to Vancouver, connect K-12 students with amazing authors, and stage life-changing events.
By becoming a donor, you will not only receive exclusive donor benefits; you will help make arts and culture programming more accessible in Vancouver.
