IUWC Schedule

IUWC conferees have two options: participate in a workshop or choose the classes-only option. Workshop participants may also attend any or all of our offered classes. IUWC classes are geared to writers and poets of all skill levels: those new to creative writing, as well as seasoned professionals. New writers are strongly encouraged to explore the classes-only option.
