Manitoba Writers' Guild

The '''Manitoba Writers' Guild (MWG''') is a not-for-profit professional association that represents professional and emerging writers in Manitoba, Canada.

The MWG's primary aim is to promote and advance the art of writing, in all its forms, throughout Manitoba. It formerly had an official publication, a quarterly magazine called ''WordWrap''.

The Guild organizes many events during the year, such as the Manitoba Book Awards (with McNally Robinson booksellers), as well as administering the province's public readings program, the Sheldon Oberman Mentorship Program, and educational sessions for writers. They also run the Patricia Blondal Memorial Writers' Retreat near Gimli, Manitoba, every summer.

The Manitoba Writers' Guild office is in the Artspace Building in the Exchange District in downtown Winnipeg, but in 2018 had to abandon most of its office space due to funding cuts. Provided by Wikipedia
