As we prepare to celebrate our 30th anniversary, we are also embarking on our very first committed fundraising campaign. Though we have long been supported by a small group of devoted readers and writers, our new Patrons Circle marks the first attempt to formalize this process and provide a larger audience with the opportunity to support our mission.
We care deeply about our island city and its rich literary history; and we are dedicated to preserving Key West as a place for people who read and write. Through our flagship program, the annual Seminar; through our Writers’ Workshop Program; through Scholarships given to emerging writers, teachers, and librarians each year; and through online resources such as our Audio Archives Project, we strive to preserve and promote Key West’s literary heritage while providing resources that strengthen literary culture.
By choosing to become a member of our Patrons Circle, you can help us continue our mission in the years ahead. Gifts of any amount may be designated for a specific purpose or for our general fund. All expenditures are made with care, under the direction of our board, with a focus on financial stability and literary excellence.
To learn about the benefits and privileges available to members of our Patrons Circle, visit the Patrons Circle online, where you can join with a payment by credit card. To receive a Patrons Circle brochure in the mail, send your mailing address to patrons@kwls.org.
