With respect to COVID-19, the Alberta Government has announced a phased reopening strategy that could take several weeks to months.

At AWCS, our member’s and program participant’s health and safety are important to us. In that regards, AWCS will remain closed until such time as we feel we can adequately serve your creative writing and professional development goals, safely and within the mandated guidelines.

We will continue to offer online programming for the foreseeable future. See Courses and Workshops page for details.

We will continue to provide updates as needed. Feel free to contact the office if you have any questions. Staff are working from home and will respond to your emails quicker than a phone call. Please email: info@alexandrawriters.org
