AWP 2019 Recap!

April 3, 2019

Located in the heart of beautiful Portland, Oregon, the 2019 Association of Writers and Writing Programs conference was a huge success! We extend our greatest thanks to all of our authors and supporters of the Press for coming by our booth to say hello, dance, and buy books! We continued our partnership with the Latinx Writers Caucus this year, and many amazing authors affiliated with the Caucus signed books in our booth. Overall, it was an incredible AWP, and we look forward to seeing you all again in San Antonio next year!

Below, find some photos from this year’s AWP conference.

We’re always happy to see Rigoberto González, thanks for stopping by!
The conference was minutes away from the iconic Portland Old Town sign, the beautiful river, and lots of fantastic local establishments.
Portland was exploding with blooms during the week of the conference.
It was nice to see this sign outside of the beloved Powell’s Books!
