NYS Writers Institute

Center for the Literary Arts in New York State

Since 1983, the NYS Writers Institute, one of America’s premiere sites for promoting the art of the written word, has hosted more than 2,000 of the world's greatest writers, poets, playwrights, filmmakers, journalists and newsmakers. 

The Institute sponsors a diversity of programs including author visits and residencies, film screenings, panel discussions, stage readings, film and book festivals, and writing workshops for adults and high school students. The goal of these programs is to increase access to major authors for students of writing and readers of literature, broaden exposure for emerging authors, and provide important cultural initiatives for the general public. The events are almost always free and open to the public.
