The Newcastle Writers Festival Patrons Program brings together supporters to celebrate reading, writing and ideas.
Patrons provide essential financial support throughout the year. Funds raised contribute to essential programs for emerging artists and primary school children; advocacy for literature to all levels of government; and national and international collaboration in the sector.
As a Patron, you will join like-minded supporters for an insider’s experience of the Newcastle Writers Festival including:
- Exclusive Patrons’ events during the Festival weekend with leading guest authors
- VIP access to the annual Festival weekend ‘Authors supper and drinks’ held each Saturday night
- VIP access to pre-opening night drinks with guest speakers and writers + tickets to opening night
- Through the year, invitations to exclusive Patrons events with visiting guest writers.
The investment for this personal Newcastle Writer’s Festival experience is a tax-deductible donation of $1,000 a year (plus a non-deductible $100 membership fee). Donations above this level can also be made.
