Over the years we have had the great fortune to support so many talented writers through our fellowships, residencies, and Core Writer program. The Affiliated Writers group is open to all writers who have been part of these programs at the Center. We don’t call these writers “alumni,” because we welcome playwrights to reapply for programs and encourage them to take advantage of the resources we can provide throughout the years. In essence, the Affiliated Writers group represents the extended family of writers that make up Playwrights’ Center.
Direct questions about the Affiliated Writers group to Artistic Programs Manager Julia Brown at juliab@pwcenter.org.
