Register to Attend In-Person
The UND Writers Conference is free and open-to all, both in-person and online. We kindly ask that in-person attendees register in advance, as that helps us better support your time at the conference. Registration also lets you secure your seats in the community craft sessions offered on each day of the conference. That said, walk-ins are always welcome at all Writers Conference events!
Register to Attend Online Via Zoom
The UND Writers Conference is pleased to offer our friends, near and far, free and open access to the literary arts. All panel discussions, artist talks, and author readings from the Writers Conference main stage will be livestreamed via UND's Zoom event portal.
Online attendees: please note that you will need to sign up separately for each day's Zoom events. You will receive a reminder email with the Zoom access link approximately one hour before each event starts.
