Young Writers Showcase

2025 BRINGS EXCITING CHANGES TO THIS PROGRAM!

The Young Writers Showcase is going to look a lot different in 2025, and we’re excited to share the revamped program. As much as we have enjoyed our partnership with the Grand Theater and appreciate that relationship, there will not be an in-person showcase on the Sunday of the festival this year.

Instead, we’ve partnered with the L.E. Phillips Memorial Public Library to display the writing of our local youth for everyone to visit. Hop over to the Young Writers Gallery webpage for all the details and the opportunity to submit work all year round.
