San Francisco Writers’ Conference

The San Francisco Writers' Conference believes there is no better (nor more exciting) time to be a writer!

The San Francisco Writers' Conference is a premiere writing event held annually in February (President's Day Weekend) at the Mark Hopkins Hotel. SFWC is also the umbrella organization that oversees other educational writing and publishing events primarily in the San Francisco/Bay Area and online. It is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit.

The Mechanics' Institute is thrilled to collaborate with the SFWC to provide educational, writing, and publishing events to its members and the public.
