Programs & Services: WGA Events 2011/2012

Each month, the WGA hosts an evening that gives our members and those interested in joining the WGA a chance to get away from their writing desk to socialize with other writers, talk about what's happening in the book world and learn more about the Writers Guild of Alberta. These WGA Events, held in both Edmonton and Calgary, also feature informed presenters who talk about some specific aspect of writing.

The WGA also holds events throughout Alberta through our Guild to Go Program.  For more information on this program and to learn how to host an event in your area, click here.
