Join us for a Week of Workshops and Writing Events

Application deadline extended to January 20, 2012. Several openings available.

The Ossabaw Island Writers’ Retreat will be held February 12-16. Located just twenty minutes from downtown Savannah, GA., the retreat offers lectures, readings, workshops, and manuscript consultations.

The unspoiled beauty of Ossabaw Island has attracted writers, artists, and musicians to live on the island for short periods of reflection, research, and creativity in the mid-to-late 20th century. Ralph Ellison, Annie Dillard, and Alice Walker, are among those who have drawn inspiration from the island. Come join us for five days and four nights of writing, workshops and one-on-one manuscript consultations with nationally recognized authors. Space is highly limited, so please sign up early.
