We provide a haven for regional rural writers by creating venues where anyone can come learn, play, and create. We are open to anyone who has the spirit and desire to push the limits. We provide educational, networking, mentoring and publication opportunities for writers in rural Grand County and nearby regions. We also serve the community by sponsoring public performances of locally written work and literary presentations from renowned authors and scholars. There is no formal membership or dues structure.
Events are free, or as low-cost as possible.
Although Moab Poets and Writers is relatively new, we have already made some impressive accomplishments. Since 1997 we've sponsored a monthly open reading series, in which about thirty writers and community members regularly participate.
