The Irish Writers Centre opens its doors for Autumn Open Day
The Irish Writers Centre (IWC) will once again open its doors for Autumn Open Day on Saturday 31 August 2024, from 10.30—4.30pm.
Taking place inside IWC’s beautiful Georgian building on Parnell Square in Dublin, Autumn Open Day is a dynamic programme of free events that brings together anyone with an interest in writing. Expect taster workshops, information sessions, writer-led panel discussion, and more.
Whether you are an absolute beginner, or an experienced writer, this day will introduce you to a new community, and hopefully leave you with some tips on how to develop your practice.

- Taster creative writing workshops in poetry, non-fiction and the short story.
- Writer-led panel discussion on ‘What’s the Story?’ with Aingeala Flannery, Sonya Gildea and Rafael Mendes.
