What we offer:

The GWC offers a comfortable place to stay.  There is a single bed and a futon that can sleep two.  The simple kitchen has a stove, coffee maker, fridge and kettle.  The pantry is stocked with a few things but residents need to supply their own food.

There is WIFI at the GWC but there is no landline.

 

 

What we ask:

We encourage you to engage in the community. Writers-in-residence are required to give a reading during their stay.  If you are interested in being more available to the community, please let us know.

We ask that each writer leave a few words for us to post on our blog.   A poem, a  story, a note on your stay– it is up to you.  Please send your note to Amanda@GloucesterWriters.org.

Although we clean the GWC after your stay, we ask you to please leave things neat.  Beds should be stripped and towels and bedding can be left in a pillowcase by the bathroom door.  We request a $75 donation to cover housekeeping costs.

Residencies are limited.
